Manny Mevito wants to study whether the height (in inches) of an engineer determines how many complaints they get. He assumes the complaints are normally distributed, and that the variances should be pooled. The engineers are categorized according to whether they get few, some, or many complaints. The data is shown below, along with some calculations (which are done correctly).

Manny Mevito wants to study whether the height (in inches) of an engineer determines how many complaints they get. He assumes the complaints are normally distributed, and that the variances should be pooled. The engineers are categorized according to whether they get few, some, or many complaints. The data is shown below, along with some calculations (which are done correctly).

  Some Many Few
Data 71.9 68.4 71.2
  68 74.5 64.4
  66.4 69.8 72.2
Averages 68.8 70.9 69.3
Std dev 2.83 3.2 4.24
Overall Average:69.67



 
(71.9−69.67)2+(68−69.67)2+(66.4−69.67)2+
(68.4−69.67)2+(74.5−69.67)2+(69.8−69.67)2+
(71.2−69.67)2+(64.4−69.67)2+(72.2−69.67)2
 
=79.6731000000001



(10−1)6.52+(23−1)6.12+(12−1)7.32+(14−1)5.92=2237.59(3−1)(2.83)2+(3−1)(3.2)2+(3−1)(4.24)2
 
=72.453
