F	2	11
G	3	10
H	5	5

b. What are the null and research hypotheses?
c. What is the mean of X?
What is the mean of Y?
Find the deviances for both groups. (X – My) and (Y – My)
Multiply the deviances like in the lecture
Sum these.
What number do you get? ___________________________
This is the numerator
Square the deviances in X and Y
What is the Sum of Squares of X?
What is the Sum of Squares of Y?
What do you get when you multiply SSx and SSy? _______________________________
Take the square root of that ____________________________
This is your denominator
d. What is r? ______________________
e. What is the critical value? ___________________________________
f. What is your decision? _____________________________
