The document discusses one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), which compares the means of three or more populations. It provides an example where sales data from three marketing strategies are analyzed using ANOVA. The null hypothesis is that the population means are equal, and it is rejected since the F-statistic is greater than the critical value, indicating at least one mean is significantly different. Post-hoc comparisons using the Bonferroni method find that Strategy 2 (emphasizing quality) has significantly higher sales than Strategy 1 (emphasizing convenience).
