Essay

Use the data in the given table and the corresponding Minitab display to test the hypothesis.
The following table shows the mileage for four different cars and three different brands of
gas. Assuming no effect from the interaction between car and brand of gas, test the claim
that the four cars have the same mean mileage. Use a 0.05 significance level. $\begin{array}{l|lll} & \text { Brand 1 } & \text { Brand 2 } & \text { Brand 3 } \\\hline \text { Car 1 } & 22.4 & 25.2 & 24.3 \\\text { Car 2 } & 19 & 18.6 & 19.8 \\\text { Car 3 } & 24.6 & 25 & 25.4 \\\text { Car 4 } & 23.5 & 23.6 & 24.1\end{array}$
