We want to know if people feel hopeful about the future for different age groups. We conduct a survey on a scale of 1 (feel extremely unsecure) to 7 (feel extremely secure). The results are shown in Table 1.

A Find the F-ratio at the α = .05. Round to three numbers after the decimal point if possible (i.e., .123).
B.Do you retain or reject the null from part A? Why?
C.Perform a post-hoc test at the α = .05 to see which age groups are significantly different from each other (Tukey’s HSD).

A) null and alternate hypothesis:
H0:
H1: atleast one mean is different from other
i) test statistics
F =14.923
B) p-value = 0.0005
since p-value is less than level of significance so we reject the null hypothesis.
C) from post hoc test
group1-group2 is different means
group1-group3 is diferent mean
group2-group3 is different mean.
