Use this information to answer the following 6 questions:
A study is being conducted to compare the intake of calories at lunch for consumers of high-fiber breakfast cereals and non-consumers of high fiber breakfast cereals. From a random sample of 43 consumers of high fiber cereals, average calorie intake at lunch was 604.02, with a sample standard deviation of 64.05 calories. In a random sample of 107 non-consumers of high fiber breakfast cereals, the average calorie intake at lunch was 633.23, with a sample standard deviation of 103.3 calories. Assume that training time for each group is normally distributed. Use the following notations:
1: The mean calorie intake at lunch for consumers of high fiber breakfast cereal
2: The mean calorie intake at lunch for non-consumers of high fiber breakfast cereal
The goal of the statistical analysis is to determine whether the sample data support the hypothesis that average calorie intake at lunch for consumers of high fiber breakfast cereal is lower than that for non-consumers of high fiber breakfast cereal.

It is generally believed that the incomes of workers depends on their field of employment. Other studies have shown that the level of education by workers also influences their income.
A random sample of incomes of three workers (for a given education level)who are employed in educational services, financial services and medical services is given in this link.

Family transportation costs are usually higher than most people believe because those costs include car payments, insurance, fuel costs, repairs, parking and public transportation. Twenty randomly selected families in four major cities are asked to use their records to estimate a monthly figure for transportation cost. The sample data are given here in this link.
https://moodle-2016-2017.fullerton.edu/pluginfile.php/245399/question/questiontext/917262/16/2834547/Transport.xlsx
Using ANOVA, the goal is to test whether there is significant difference in monthly transportation costs for families living in these cities. Assume that transport costs in each city are normally distributed.
1:The mean transportation cost in Atlanta
2:The mean transportation cost in New York
3:The mean transportation cost in Los Angeles
4:The mean transportation cost in Chicago
We will be using 5% level of significance when conducting hypothesis testing.
Question 14: What is the null hypothesis

A large financial institution is interested in training its college educated workforce "Advanced Microsoft Excel". Management is considering3approaches:online,traditional classroomandhybrid(a mix of both). Prior to launching the program throughout the entire organization, they decided to pilot test the three approaches.
Because they believed that educational background may affect the results, they selected 3 employees from each of10different college major program of study (liberal arts, accounting, economics, management, marketing, finance, information systems, computer science, operations, other), and randomly assigned each to one of the three approaches. At the end of training, each participant took an exam. Below is the partially completed ANOVA table.

Mr Seinfeld owns three restaurants. Lately he has been receiving several complaints about the cleanliness of his restaurants. John, one of his employees who has taken a business analytics class in his college years, was given the task of conducting a statistical test to determine if cleanliness among the restaurants is different.
