A traffic office in a country was in charge of a study where the safety of passengers in
different types of cars was examined. Three models were examined; small cars, minivans and
SUVS and six cars in each category were inspected. A special traffic accident simulator was
used in the study and the pressure on the drivers' heads was measured. Umferðarastofa
wanted to investigate whether there was a difference in the average pressure on the head
during a collision in these three types of cars and used a variance analysis for this purpose.

The steel is cut with a diamond saw and requires the resulting parts to be within 10.005 inch of the length specified by the automobile company. Data are collected from a sample of 50 steel parts and are shown in the following table. The measurement reported is the difference in inches between the actual length of the steel part, as measured by a laser measurement device, and the specified length of the steel part. For example, the first value, -0.003, represents a steel part that is 0.003 inch shorter than the specified length. Complete parts a through c Click the icon to view the data table. a.
