It was rounding to the nearest THOUSAND.


We are looking at the thousands place, keep that in mind.


Remember: everything 5 and above is rounded up, everything below 5 is rounded down.


186,789 is above 500, it is rounded to 187,000


186,899 is above 500, it is rounded to 187,000


185,990 is above 500, it is rounded to 186,000


and 185,190 is below 500, it is rounded to 185,000


Only one matches the criteria of the question:


185,990 is above 500, it is rounded to 186,000


therefore the answer is 185,990 miles per second



Have a fantastic day!

For an analysis of variance comparing three treatment means, H0 states that all three population means are the same and H1 state
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The analysis of variance may be described as an hypothesis test which is used to make comparison between variables of two or more independent groups. The null hypothesis is always of the notion that there is no difference in the means. While the alternative hypothesis is the opposite, for two independent groups, the alternative hypothesis is that both means are different, or not equal or not the same. However. When we have more than 2 independent groups, then the alternative hypothesis is stated as : 'the means are not all equal'. This means that the means of each group does not all have to be different, but the mean of one group may be different from that of the other groups or the mean of two groups are different from the other groups and so on.
