Direction: Solve the following using the six (6) steps of hypothesis testing.

1) Twenty randomly selected families in four major cities in Metro Manila are asked
to estimate a monthly transportation cost. Use the data obtained below to test
whether there is a significant difference in monthly transportation costs for
families living in these cities using 1% level of significance.

Php440 Php250 Php550 Php750
Php350 Php425 Php380 Php600
Php575 Php200 Php450 Php850
Php450 Php175 Php500 Php650

1) Hypothesis: Ho : μQC = μMC = μCC = μVC Ha : μQC ≠ μMC ≠

μCC ≠ μVC

2) Level of Significance: α = 1% or 0.01

3) Statistical Test: Test : Non-directional Tail – test : Two tailed test

Df (num) : k-1 : 4-1=3 Df (denom) : N-k : 16-4=12
Tabular Value : ± 5.95

4) Area of Rejection:
Decision Rule:
- + Since the indicated tabular value is ±
± 14.08
±5.95 5.95 based from the area, the
decision is reject the null hypothesis
- calculated value+5.
if the is greater
than 5.95 and less than -5.95
5) Compute the F- otherwise, accept the null ratio using the table:

Decision:
Since the identified tabular value
is ± 5.95. Based from the area, the
decision is to reject the null
hypothesis since the computed
value of ±14.08 is greater than
5.95 and less than -5.95
Interpretation:
Failure to accept the null hypothesis
means that there is a significant

2) Four basketball teams played last weekend. The following are the scores of their
players. Test the hypothesis that there is no significant difference between the
players’ scores of the four basketball teams using 5% level of significance.

1) Hypothesis: Ho : μA = μB = μC = μD Ha : μA ≠ μB ≠ μC ≠ μD

2) Level of Significance: α = 5% or 0.05

3) Statistical Test: Test : Non-directional Tail – test : Two tailed test

Df (num) : k-1 : 4-1 = 3 Df (denom) : N-k : 30-4 = 26
Tabular Value : 2.98

4) Area of Rejection:
Decision Rule:

Use these in Since the identified tabular value

shading the was ±2.98 Based from the area,
curve: the decision rules is to reject the
null hypothesis if the computed F
5) Compute value is greater than 2.98 and the F-ratio using the table:
less than -2.98 otherwise accept
the null hypothesis.

Decision:
Since the identified tabular value
is ± 2.98. Based from the area, the
decision is to reject the null
hypothesis since the computed
value of ±24.59 is greater than
2.98 and less than -2.98.
Interpretation:
Failure to accept the null hypothesis
tells that there is no significant
difference between the player’s
score of four basketball teams using
5% level of significance.
