Instructions: You may use Excel, MegaStat, Minitab, JMP, or another computer package of your choice. Attach appropriate copies of the output or capture the screens, tables, and relevant graphs and include them in a written report. Try to state your conclusions succinctly in language that would be clear to a decision maker who is a nonstatistician. Exercises marked * are based on optional material. Answer the following questions, or those your instructor assigns.
- a. Choose an appropriate ANOVA model. State the hypotheses to be tested.
- b. Display the data visually (e.g., dot plots or line plots by factor). What do the displays show?
- c. Do the ANOVA calculations using the computer.
- d. State the decision rule for α = .05 and make the decision. Interpret the p-value.
- e. In your judgment, are the observed differences in treatment means (if any) large enough to be of practical importance?
- f. Given the nature of the data, would more data collection be practical?
- g. Perform Tukey multiple comparison tests and discuss the results.
- h. Perform a test for homogeneity of variances. Explain fully.
The XYZ Corporation is interested in possible differences in days worked by salaried employees in three departments in the financial area. A survey of 23 randomly chosen employees reveals the data shown below. Because of the casual sampling methodology in this survey, the sample sizes are unequal. Research question: Are the mean annual attendance rates the same for employees in these three departments?

First we will create a scatterplot to examine how weight is related to height, ignoring gender. To do that in Excel: Sort the data by gender: Hold down the Control key (Command key on MacOS) and click the A key to select all of the data in the worksheet. Select the Home tab, then the Editing group Sort & Filter -> Custom Sort. In the pop-up window, make sure that My list has headers box is checked and then choose gender from the pull-down menu next to Sort by. Click OK. Now select all of the data in columns B and C, select the Insert tab and in the Charts group choose Scatter. Choose the first scatterplot option (Scatter with only Markers). Now we have a scatterplot, but the data is all on the right of the plot. To fix this: Right-click on the x-axis, and choose Format Axis from the pop-up menu. Make sure that Axis Options is selected on the left, and…arrow_forward

Hire is the manager of human resources at Crescent Tool and Die, Inc. As part ofhis yearly report to the CEO, he is required to present an analysis of the salariedemployees. Because there are over 1,000 employees, he does not have the staff to gatherinformation on each salaried employed, so he selects a random sample of 30 (Fred G. Hireworksheet). For each employee, he records monthly salary; service at Crescent, inmonths; gender (1 = male, 0 = female); and whether the employee has a technical orclerical job. Those working technical jobs are coded 1 and those who are clerical 0.Fred uses excel to fit a multiple regression model using salary as the dependent or Yvariable and the other four variables as independent or X variables. The output appearsbelow. Use this output for question 36) below. 36) The regression model above suggests that for two employees (one male…arrow_forward
