Two independent samples of size 30 each have been selected at random from the female and male students of a university. To test whether there is any difference in the grade point average between female and male students, an equal-variances t-test will be considered. Another test to consider is ANOVA. Which of the following is the most likely ANOVA to fit this test situation? A. Randomised block design. B. Two-way ANOVA. C. One-way ANOVA D. Chi-squared test.

Three tennis players, one a beginner, one intermediate and one advanced, have been randomly selected from the membership of a club in a large city. Using the same tennis ball, each player hits ten serves, one with each of three racquet models, with the three racquet models selected randomly. The speed of each serve is measured with a machine and the result recorded. Among the ANOVA models listed below, the most likely model to fit this situation is the: A. one-way ANOVA. B. two-way ANOVA. C. randomised block design. D. matched-pairs model.

The marketing management of a shopping complex food court, wants to investigate the average age of customers of three of the food court's fast food outlets: fish and chips, sandwich bar, and chicken and chips. This is to ascertain whether they should be providing different seating options for patrons.
They take a random sample of eight customers at each of these three outlets and record their ages.
Do these data provide enough evidence at the 5% significance level to infer that there are differences in ages among the customers of the fast food outlets, and that the food court should provide different seating options? From previous analyses, ages of customers of this food court are normally distributed.
