  40.0 36.2  
    25.4  
    32.4  
Use ? = 0.05 to test whether the mean percentage of 17- to 24-year-olds who are attending college is the same for the four geographic regions.
 
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
1. H0: μN = μM = μS = μW
    Ha: μN ≠ μM ≠ μS ≠ μW
2 .H0: At least two of the population means are equal.
    Ha: At least two of the population means are different.    
3. H0: μN ≠ μM ≠ μS ≠ μW
   Ha: μN = μM = μS = μW
4. H0: Not all the population means are equal.
   Ha: μN = μM = μS = μW
5. H0: μN = μM = μS = μW
    Ha: Not all the population means are equal.
 
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.
1. Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of 17- to 24-year-olds who are attending college is not the same for the four geographic regions.
2. Do not reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of 17- to 24-year-olds who are attending college is not the same for the four geographic regions.   
3. Do not reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of 17- to 24-year-olds who are attending college is not the same for the four geographic regions.
4. Reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of 17- to 24-year-olds who are attending college is not the same for the four geographic regions.
