As part of a study designed to compare hybrid and similarly equipped conventional vehicles, a group tested a variety of classes of hybrid and all-gas model cars and sport utility vehicles (SUVs). Suppose the following data show the miles-per-gallon rating obtained for two hybrid small cars, two hybrid midsize cars, two hybrid small SUVs, and two hybrid midsize SUVs; also shown are the miles per gallon obtained for eight similarly equipped conventional models.
Class | Type | MPG |
---|---|---|
Small Car | Hybrid | 36 |
Small Car | Conventional | 29 |
Small Car | Hybrid | 43 |
Small Car | Conventional | 33 |
Midsize Car | Hybrid | 27 |

Midsize Car | Hybrid | 32 |
Midsize Car | Conventional | 25 |
Small SUV | Hybrid | 28 |
Small SUV | Conventional | 20 |
Small SUV | Hybrid | 29 |
Small SUV | Conventional | 21 |
Midsize SUV | Hybrid | 23 |
Midsize SUV | Conventional | 19 |
Midsize SUV | Hybrid | 24 |
Midsize SUV | Conventional | 18 |
At the α = 0.05 level of significance, test for significant effects due to class, type, and interaction.
Find the value of the test statistic for class. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value for class. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value =
State your conclusion about class.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, class is not significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, class is significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, class is not significant.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, class is significant.
Find the value of the test statistic for type. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value for type. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value =
State your conclusion about type.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, type is not significant.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, type is significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, type is not significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, type is significant.
Find the value of the test statistic for interaction between class and type. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value for interaction between class and type. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value =
State your conclusion about interaction between class and type.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, interaction between class and type is significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, interaction between class and type is not significant.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, interaction between class and type is not significant.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, interaction between class and type is significant.
Find the value of the test statistic for class. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
24.01
Find the p-value for class. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value = 0.000
State your conclusion about class.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, class is significant.
Find the value of the test statistic for type. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
29.76
Find the p-value for type. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value = 0.001
State your conclusion about type.
Because the p-value ≤ α = 0.05, type is significant.
Find the value of the test statistic for interaction between class and type. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
0.50
Find the p-value for interaction between class and type. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value = 0.691
State your conclusion about interaction between class and type.
Because the p-value > α = 0.05, interaction between class and type is not significant.
