Rapid drainage of floodwater is crucial to prevent damage during heavy rains. Several designs for a drainage canal were considered for a certain city. Each designs was tested five times, to determinehow longit took to drain the water in a reservoir. The following table pesents the drainage times, in minutes.

Channel Type                      Drainage Time

1                                       41.4  43.4  50.5  41.2

2                                       38.7   48.3  51.1  38.3

3                                       32.6   33.7  34.8   22.5

4                                       26.3    30.9  33.3   23.8

5                                       44.9    47.2   48.5   37.1

a. Construct an ANOVA table.

b. Can you conclude that there is a difference in the mean drainage times for the different channel designs? use the a=0.01 level of significance.

Step 1

(A)

According to the provided information, drainage time for the different channel design are given. Each drainage tested for 5 times.

There is only one factor which is drainage time. So, clearly it is a one way ANOVA.

Excel software is used to construct the ANOVA Table.

Software Procedure

Step by step procedure to calculate ANOVA using Excel.

• Inter the data into worksheet
• Go to DATA > Data Analysis
• Anova : Single Factor
• Select the data into Input Range
• Select Grouped By: Row
• Select Alpha 0.01
• Click OK in each dialogue box.

The output of the ANOVA is shown below.

Step 2

B)   In order to conclude whether there is difference in the mean drainage t...
