Answer 1

Hi. Here is an explanation. http://www.statisticallysignificantconsulting.com/Anova.htm?gclid=CKTnk9b2lYwCFRBCgQodWgmYng
From the web: "F Statistic:
Value calculated by the ratio of two sample variances. The F statistic can test the null hypothesis: (1) that the two sample variances are from normal populations with a common variance; (2) that two population means are equal; (3) that no connection exists between the dependent variable and all or some of the independent variables."
