The weights (in grams) of four different colors of M&M candies are given below, along with the mean weight and variance of each color, and the variance of the sample means. Use a one-way ANOVA at the 0.05 significance level to test the null hypothesis that the different color M&M candies have the same mean weight.

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING ANSWERS ARE CORRECT?

1. The test statistic F = 3.6 with a critical value of 4.1, so we fail to reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
2. The test statistic F = 3.6 with a critical value of 3.0, so we reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
3. The test statistic F = 3.6 with a critical value of 3.2, so we reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
4. The test statistic F = 2.9 with a critical value of 3.2, so we fail to reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
