Refer to the accompanying data table, which shows the amounts of nicotine (mg per cigarette) in king-size cigarettes, 100-mm menthol cigarettes, and 100-mm nonmenthol cigarettes. The king-size cigarettes are nonfiltered, while the 100-mm menthol cigarettes and the 100-mm nonmenthol cigarettes are filtered. Use a.05 significance level to test the claim that the three categories of cigarettes yield the same mean amount of nicotine. Given that only the king-size cigarettes are not filtered, do the filters appear to make a difference?
a. Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
b.Find the F test statistic.
c.Find the P-value using the F test statistic.
d.What is the conclusion for this hypothesis test?
e.Do the filters appear to make a difference?
