Johnson's Service Center has devised three potential options available to preferred customers who redeem coupons and buy at least 10 gallons of fuel when they stop in. Option A is a flat 3 cents off each gallon. Option B is a combination of 2 cents off plus another $1 discount on the regular price of a $5 deluxe car wash. Option C is a $2 discount on the same $5 deluxe car wash but no reduction in the fuel purchase. The owner, Harold Johnson, ran each option on three different two-week trial periods and tracked daily sales receipts from those customers who redeemed their coupons. Results are shown in the table below:

Answer d: Fisher
Let mean of A: <y1>, mean of B = <y2> and of C = <y3>
sum(yi1) = 7259
=> <y1> = 7259/14 = 518.50
sum(yi2) = 7647
=> <y2> = 7647/14 = 546.21
sum(yi3) = 7324
=> <y3> = 7324/14 = 523.14
Grand mean:
<y> = sum(k =1,3) [nk * <yk> ]/sum(k=1,3)[nk]
