The accompanying table gives amounts of arsenic in samples of brown rice from three different states The amounts are in micrograms of arsenic and all samples have the same serving size The data are from the Food and Drug Administration Use a 0 05 significance level to test the claim that the three samples are from populations with the same mean Do the amounts of arsenic appear to be different in the different states Given that the amounts of arsenic in the samples from Texas have the highest mean can we conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem Click the icon to view the data OB Ho At least one of the means is different from the others H H H H3 OC Ho H1 H H3 H H H 3 D Ho H1 H2 H3 H At least one of the means is different from the others Determine the test statistic The test statistic is 23 23 Round to two decimal places as needed Determine the P value The P value is 0 000 Round to three decimal places as needed Do the amounts of arsenic appear to be different in the different states There is sufficient evidence at a 0 05 significance level to warrant rejection of the claim that the three different states have the same mean arsenic content s in brown rice Given that the amounts of arsenic in the samples from Texas have the highest tean can we conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem O A Because the amounts of arsenic in the samples from Texas have the highest mean we can conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem OB The results from ANOVA do not allow us to conclude that any one specific population mean is different from the others so we cannot conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem OC The results from ANOVA allow us to conclude that Texas has the highest population mean so we can conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem OD Although the amounts of arsenic in the samples from Texas have the highest mean there may be other states that have a higher mean so we cannot conclude that brown rice from Texas poses
