Three students, Linda, Tuan, and Javier, are given laboratoryrats for a nutritional experiment. Each rat's weight is recorded ingrams. Linda feeds her rats Formula A, Tuan feeds his rats FormulaB, and Javier feeds his rats Formula C. At the end of a specifiedtime period, each rat is weighed again, and the net gain in gramsis recorded.

H1:H1: At least two of the means differ from each other.
- For this study, we should use Select an answer 2-SampTInt1-PropZInt 2-SampTTest 2-PropZInt TInterval 1-PropZTest T-Test?²GOF-Test ANOVA 2-PropZTest ?²-Test
- The test-statistic for this data = (Please show youranswer to 3 decimal places.)
- The p-value for this sample = (Please show youranswer to 4 decimal places.)
- The p-value is Select an answer less than (or equal to) alphagreater than alpha ??
- Base on this, we should Select an answer fail to reject thenull hypothesis reject the null hypothesis accept the nullhypothesis hypothesis
- As such, the final conclusion is that...
- There is sufficient evidence to support the claim thatnutritional formula type is a factor in weight gain for rats.
