The persоn in chаrge оf genetic evаluаtiоn of beef cattle wants to know if birth weights of calves are influenced by breed and if they are influenced by the region of the U.S. (i.e., Northern U.S. vs Southern U.S.) in which the calf is born.  She has heard that calves born in the South are usually lighter at birth than are calves born in the North.  In order to answer these questions, she sets up a 2 x 3 factorial experiment with 3 replications and obtains the birth weights (in pounds) shown in the following table:                   Angus       Charolais       Simmental North             85                93                 91                       85                92                 92                       83                94                 92 South            85                84                  82                      76                85                   83                      74                83                   83     The partially completed ANOVA table is as follows: Source               df             SS            MS          F       Total                                 548.00 Location Breed                               174.33       87.165     13.643 Location x breed                  9.00         4.500 Error                                                                                       State the null and alternative hypothesis for location.
