Samples of households in four regions, region1, region II, region III, and region IV yielded a data
in energy consumptions as shown in the table below. At the 5% significance level, do the data
provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the difference exists in the mean energy
consumption by the household among the four regions?

Mean Region 1= 13, Region 2= 14.5, Region 3= 10, Region 4= 9.2 = 11.9

Sum of the squares of the mean between

SSb= 6.05 + 40.56 + 14.44 + 36.45 df= K-1

SSb= 97.5 df= 3

Ratio of SSb and Dfb = 97.5/3

=32.5

Sum of the Squares within

SSw1 = (15−13)2 +(10−13)2 +(13−13)2+(14−13)2+(13−13)2

a) What particular statistical test is fitted?

b) How are you going to conduct the test?
c) Solve for the computed value and make the decision whether a statistical
difference do exist or not.
