    The document describes the steps to conduct a one-way ANOVA test comparing the number of patient stays across 3 hospitals. The null hypothesis is that there is no significant difference between the means of the 3 hospitals. An F-test statistic is calculated and an alpha value of 0.01 is used. The F-critical value is 3.554557 and the F-statistical value is 0.249516, which is less than the critical value. Therefore, the null hypothesis is accepted and the means of patient stays across the 3 hospitals are the same.

    ANOVA

    Step 1 :
    H0 : 1=2=3
    H1: THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
    NO OF PATIENT STAY IN 3 HOSPITALS

    Step 2:
    The appropriate test statistics is f-test calculated to
    ANOVA test.

    Step 3:
    Value of alpha = 0.01

    Step 4:
    Degree of freedom :
    1) Between group = 2
    2) Within group = 18

    So critical value of F is 3.554557


    Step 5 :
    Crtical value of F is 3.554557
    Statistical value of F is 0.249516

    step 6 :
    3.554557 > 0.249516

    [ So , null hypothesis is accepted ]


    So , the mean of a, b and c hospital patient are same
