Answer this question using the One-Way ANOVA with Equal Sample Sizes:
Weights (kg) of poplar trees were obtained from trees planted in a sandy and dry region. The trees were given different treatm
Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the four treatment categories yield poplar trees with the same mean weight
to be most effective in the sandy and dry region?
