Question
The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) contains three areas: critical reading, mathematics, and writing. Each area is scored on an 800-point scale. A sample of SAT scores for six students follows.

(a) Using a 0.05 level of significance, do students perform differently on the three areas of the SAT?
State the null and alternative hypotheses.

H₂:
Not all the population means are equal.

O Ho: At least two of the population means are equal.
H.: At least two of the population means are different.
O H.: Not all the population means are equal.
Ha: Reading Mathematics Writing
Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value=
State your conclusion.
O Reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean scores for the three parts of the SAT are not all equal.
O Do not reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean scores for the three parts of the SAT are not all equal.
O Reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean scores for the three parts of the SAT are not all equal.
O Do not reject H. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean scores for the three parts of the SAT are not all equal.
(b) Which area of the test seems to give the students the most trouble? Explain.
The mean test scores for the three sections are
for critical reading,
for mathematics, and
for writing. Because the ---Select---
✓section has the lowest average score, this section appears to give the students the most trouble.
