Question
Three admission test preparation programs are being evaluated. Suppose the scores obtained by a sample of 20 people who used the programs provided the following data.
Program
A B C
510 450 600
400 510 620
490 400 580
520 430 490
490 480 590
630 360 640
  550 560
 
Use the Kruskal-Wallis test to determine whether there is a significant difference among the three test preparation programs. Use ? = 0.05.
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
 
-H0: MedianA ≠ MedianB ≠ MedianC
Ha: MedianA = MedianB = MedianC
-H0: MedianA = MedianB = MedianC
Ha: MedianA ≠ MedianB ≠ MedianC    
-H0: All populations of test scores are identical.
Ha: Not all populations of test scores are identical.
-H0: MedianA = MedianB = MedianC
Ha: MedianA > MedianB < MedianC
-H0: Not all populations of test scores are identical.
Ha: All populations of test scores are identical.
 
Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer=??
 
Find the p-value. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value =??
 
State your conclusion.
-Do not reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the three test preparation programs.
-Reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the three test preparation programs.    
-Do not reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the three test preparation programs.
-Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference among the three test preparation programs.
