The hypothesis being tested is:
H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 = µ4 = µ5
Ha: At least one means is not equal
The SPSS output is:
The p-value is 0.000.
Since the p-value (0.000) is less than the significance level (0.01), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can conclude that at least one mean cost per mile is different from the others.
Please give me a thumbs-up if this helps you out. Thank you!
