a. Given the following information obtained from three normally distributed populations, construct an ANOVA table. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places. Round "SS" to 2 decimal places, "MS" to 4 decimal places, and "F" to 3 decimal places.)
SSTR = 251.3; SSE = 2,449.5; c = 3; n1 = n2 = n3 = 10
b. At the 10% significance level, what is the conclusion to the ANOVA test of mean differences?
Do not reject H0; we cannot conclude that some means differ.
Reject H0; we can conclude that some means differ.
Do not reject H0; we can conclude that some means differ.
Reject H0; we cannot conclude that some means differ.

b)
The Null hypothesis, ho: there is no significant difference in
the mean of three groups.
V/s Alternative hypothesis, h1: at least one of the means of the
three groups differ significantly.
Since p>5%, I fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude
that there is no significant difference in the mean of three
groups.
Hence the correct option is: "Do not reject
H0; we cannot conclude that some means
differ."
