Pate's Pharmacy, Inc. operates a regional chain of 120 pharmacies. Each pharmacy's floor plan includes a greeting card department which is relatively isolated. Sandra Royo, Marketing Manager, feels that the lighting level in the greeting card department may affect sales in that department. She divides the 120 pharmacies into 3 groups (urban, suburban, and rural) and randomly assigns six pharmacies to each lighting level (soft, medium, and bright). Analysis of Sandra's data produced the following ANOVA table.

Using  = 0.01, the appropriate decision for the treatment effects is ________.

do not reject the null hypothesis  1   2   3
do not reject the null hypothesis  1 =  2 = 
reject the null hypothesis  1   2   3
reject the null hypothesis  1   2   3

BigShots, Inc. is a specialty e-tailer that operates 87 catalog Web sites on the Internet. Kevin Conn, Sales Director, feels that the style (color scheme, graphics, fonts, etc.) of a Web site may affect its sales. He chooses three levels of design style (neon, old world, and sophisticated) and randomly assigns six catalog Web sites to each design style. Analysis of Kevin's data yielded the following ANOVA table.
