Question:

Refer to Table 14.1, which presents data on the hardnesses of welds produced from four different fluxes.

a. There are six possible hypotheses to test regarding pairs of fluxes. They are: H0: μ1 − μ2 = 0, H0: μ1 − μ3 = 0, H0: μ1 − μ4 = 0, H0: μ2 − μ3 = 0, H0: μ2 − μ4 = 0, and H0: μ3 − μ4 = 0.

Compute the value of the Bonferroni test statistic for each of these pairs.

b. Find the P-value for each of the tests, using the Student’s t distribution with N − I degrees of freedom. The alternatives are two-tailed.

c. Use the Bonferroni correction to determine which pairs of means, if any, differ at the α = 0.05 level of significance.

d. Compare the results of the Bonferroni correction with the results of the Tukey–Kramer test.image text in transcribed
