TABLE 10-20
A hotel chain has identically sized resorts in five locations. The data that follow resulted from analyzing the hotel occupancies on randomly selected days in the five locations.

-Referring to Table 10-20, what should be the decision for the Levene's test for homogeneity of variances at a 5% level of significance?
A) Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is smaller than the level of significance.
B) Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is larger than the level of significance.
C) Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is smaller than the level of significance.
D) Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is larger than the level of significance.

The decision for Levene's test is to not reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is larger than the level of significance, indicating that there is not enough evidence to conclude that the variances are different.
