Test whether the combined test scores for the Lieutenant exam are the same for all the three races at the 5% significance level.

Test statistic, F: 8.58, 12.09, 6.84, or 8.01? (select one)

P-value: 0.004, 0.963, 0.084, or 0.027? (select one)

Conclusion: A. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that at least one mean combined score is different between races.

B. Reject the null hypothesis. There is insufficient evidence that at least one mean combined score is different between races.

C. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that at least one mean combined score is different between races.

D. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is insufficient evidence that at least one mean combined score is different between races.

Total	6,728.62508	76

That is,

Test statistics: F = 8.58

The p-value: 0.0004

Since p-value is less than 0.05 so we reject the null hypothesis.

Correct option is:

A. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence that at least one mean combined score is different between races.

Consider the following regression results of B for time series data. The dependent variable is the log of real consumption and the regressors are all lagged by one period. The coefficients are estimated by OLS method. *, **, and *** indicate that the coefficients are significant at the 10%, 5%, and 1% level, respectively. The F- test in the last row tests the joint hypothesis that all the coefficients except the constant are zero and their p-values are provided in...
