 Teachers Example, I have five pizza delivery areas and I want to know if the average sales per run is different in one area than any of the other areas.

H0: There is no significant difference in the sales per run between the delivery areas

H1: There is a significant difference in the sales per run between the delivery areas

Notice how the hypothesis is very simple. There is a difference or there is not a difference. Again, we will use MegaStat. You cannot calculate ANOVA by hand.

Just put your own sales for each area in a column and click the Megastat menu, select analysis of variance, and highlight your data and click enter. Check your p-value. Interpret.

Here is the teachers example :
