To see whether a new floor polish A was superior to those produced by four competitors, B, C, D, and E, a manufacturer asked a sample of 100 housekeepers to view five identical patches of flooring that had received the five polishes. Each indicated the patch that he or she considered superior in appearance, with the results shown in the table. Polish ABCDE Frequency 28 18 16 23 15 LA USE SALT Do these data present sufficient evidence to indicate a preference for one or more of the polished patches of floor over the others? (Use a = 0.05.) State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: At least one p; is different from 0. Ha: p1 = p2 = p3 = p4 = p5 = 0 Ho: P1 = p2 = p3 = p4 = p5 = 0 Ha: At least one pi is different from 0.

Since the p-value is greater than 0.05, Ho is rejected. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the preference for the five floor polishes. Since the p- value is less than 0.05, Ho is rejected. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the preference for the five floor polishes. C Since the p-value is greater than 0.05, Ho is not rejected. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the preference for the five floor polishes. Since the p-value is less than 0.05, Ho is not rejected. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the preference for the five floor polishes. If one were to reject the hypothesis of no preference for this experiment, would this imply that polish A is superior to the others? Yes, since the conclusion would be that all of the values of the p; are significantly different from which implies that polish A is greater than U -Yes, since the conclusion would be that at least one of the values of the pi was significantly different from and polish A has the highest frequency. . Yes, since the conclusion would be that at least one of the values of the pi was significantly different from U - which implies that polish A is greater than U - No, since the conclusion would be that all of the values of the pi are significantly different from UI but this does not imply that polish A is necessarily greater than No, since the conclusion would be that at least one of the values of the pi was significantly different from but this does not imply that polish A is necessarily greater than U Can you suggest a better way of conducting the experiment? You may need to use the appropriate appendix table to answer this question.2. [-/2 Points] MendStat15 14.R.002.
