An experiment is conducted to study the effects of curing times and curing temperatures on the bonding strength of an epoxy adhesive. In the experiment, two steel rods are adhered together end-to-end, and the bonding strength is defined as the force, in pounds, required to pull the bond apart. For each combination of curing time and curing temperature, three tests are performed. The results of the experiment are shown below.

A diet center wanted to test three different methods for losing weight to determine if the average weight loss (reported in pounds/week) for each method is the same. The results for the three methods are tabulated below. Given that there is a significant difference between the three methods, use the Tukey test to determine if there is a significant difference between each pair of methods. Let α=0.05\alpha = 0.05 .
