Use a Kruskal-Wallis test to test the claim that the samples come from populations with equal
medians. The table below shows the weights (in pounds)of 6 randomly selected women in
each of three different age groups. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the 3
age-groups have the same median weight. $$\begin{array} { c | r | r }
\text { 18-34 } & \text { 35-55 } & \text { 56 and older } \
\hline 119 & 123 & 140 \
134 & 147 & 128 \
114 & 135 & 59 \
125 & 110 & 134 \
153 & 154 & 120 \
138 & 163 & 116
\end{array}$$
