None of these alternatives is correct. |
Given that
SSTR = 6,750 | H0: μ1=μ2=μ3=μ4 |
SSE = 8,000 | Ha: at least one mean is different |
nT = 20 |
F statistic = [SSTR/df(R)]/[SSE/df(E)]
setting SSTR = 6750, df(R) = number of categories - 1 = 4-1 = 3, SSE = 8000 and df(E) = nT - number of categories = 20-4 = 16
setting the values, we get
F statistic = [6750/3]/[8000/16]
= 2250/500
= 4.5
p value = F.DIST.RT(x,df(R),df(E))
= F.DIST.RT(4.5,3,16)
= 0.018
So, p value is less than 0.05 significance level
Therefore, null hypothesis should be rejected
option A
