In a bumper test, three test vehicles of each of three types of autos were crashed into a barrier at 5 mph, and the resulting damage was estimated. Crashes were from three angles: head-on, slanted, and rear-end. The results are shown below. Research questions: Is the mean repair cost affected by crash type and/or vehicle type? Are the observed effects (if any) large enough to be of practical importance (as opposed to statistical significance)?

To compare two kinds of bumper guards, six of each kind were mounted on a car. Then the car was run into a concrete wall. Statistics for the costs of repairs are: ¯x1 = 140, ¯x2 = 149, (s1)^2 = 80, (s2) ^2 = 82. Assume that the two populations are normal, independent and have the same variance. Test at α = .01 the null hypothesis that there is no difference between costs of repairs.
