Question

Your plant manager want to determine the effect of ice cream flavor run on changeover time.
(10 points) Your plant manager wants to determine the effect of ice cream flavor run on changeover time between batches for the three different changeovers that your plant does. You collect the following data. Is there a difference in changeover times based on the flavors? Perform a full hypothesis test at the 0.05 level and state your conclusion. Chocolate to strawberry 3.8 6.8 6.4 Strawberry to vanilla 3.8 4.5 4.8 4.9 4.3 4.9 5.9 5.8 Vanilla to chocolate 6.1 4.3 6.8 6.2 5.8 3.6 4 3.6 5.1 6.4 3.5 4.1

Explanation / Answer

ho: there is no significant difference in the mean changeover time between different flavors of ice-cream.

h1: there is significant difference in the mean changeover time between different flavors of ice-cream.

One-way ANOVA: ch -stw, stw-vani, vani-ch

Method

Null hypothesis All means are equal
Alternative hypothesis At least one mean is different
Significance level = 0.05

Equal variances were assumed for the analysis.

Means

Factor N Mean StDev 95% CI
ch -stw 8 5.263 1.316 (4.420, 6.105)
stw-vani 8 4.862 0.711 (4.020, 5.705)
vani-ch 8 5.050 1.305 (4.207, 5.893)

Pooled StDev = 1.14596

with F = .24 and p-value > .05 i fail to reject ho and conclude that there is no significant difference in the mean changeover time between different flavors of ice-cream
