(Q5). The data on monthly rents, in dollars, for independent random samples of newly completed apartments in three U.S. regions are presented in the table below.  Assume that the population standard deviation of the monthly rents in the three regions are equal and the populations are normally distributed.

 

Northeast                   South              _____West

      1005                              891                            1025

        898                              630                            1012

        948                              861                            1090

      1181                                                                  926

_______________________________

 

(a). Do the data indicate that there is a difference in the monthly rent for the three regions?  Discuss the assumptions you have made to carry out your analysis. Use a significance level of 10%.                                                          

(b). Interpret your conclusion in words relating to the problem.
