Question

| Four different paints are advertised as having the same drying time. To check the manufacturer's claims, five samples were tested for each of the paints. The time in minutes until the paint was dry enough for a second coat to be appl ed was recorded. The following data were obtained. Excel users: The data sat is avslable in foe named Paint.

SSA=5(133-138)^2+5(139-138)^2+5(136-138)^2+5(144-138)^2=330

SSW=(128-133)^2+……..+(153-144)^2=692

MSA=330/(4-1)=110

MSW=692/(20-4)=43.25

F=MSA/MSW=110/43.25=2.54

Fcrit=3.24

Since F<Fcrit, cannot reject the null hypothesis. Thus, we conclude that there is no difference between the mean drying time
