Given below are the analysis of variance results from a Minitab display. Assume that you want to use a 0.05 significance level in testing the null hypothesis that the different samples come from populations with the same mean.
-Identify the value of the test statistic. $$\begin{array} { l r c c c c }
\text { Source } & \text { DF } & \text { SS } & \text { MS } & \text { F } & \text { P } \
\text { Factor } & 3 & 13.500 & 4.500 & 5.17 & 0.011 \
\text { Error } & 16 & 13.925 & 0.870 & & \
\text { Total } & 19 & 27.425 & & &
\end{array}$$
A) 5.17
B) 13.500
C) 4.500
D) 0.011
