A carefully designed and executed experiment has just been concluded. This was an experiment with one independent variable at three levels with five repeats. The results of ANOVA indicated that the F_data was less than the F_critical (F_table) for 0.05 significance. Answer the following questions.

1. State a conclusion for this experiment using statistical terms.

2. What useful information, if any, can you supply based on these results?

3. The experimenters want to increase the significance level until F_data is greater than F_critical. Does this work? Discuss this approach.

4. The experimenters would like to redo the experiment with no repeats (to save time and money). What would you tell the experimenters about this idea?

5. Discuss the use of a t-test as an alternative to the ANOVA.
