At α = 0.05, test to see if there is a significant difference among the averages of the three groups. Show the complete ANOVA table.
The following table is obtained:
Group 1 | Group 2 | Group 3 | |
83 | 90 | 85 | |
60 | 55 | 90 | |
80 | 84 | 90 | |
85 | 91 | 95 | |
70 | 85 | 80 | |
Sum = | 378 | 405 | 440 |
Average = | 75.6 | 81 | 88 |
∑Xij2 | 29014 | 33687 | 38850 |
St. Dev. = | 10.455 | 14.849 | 5.701 |
SS = | 437.2 | 882 | 130 |
n = | 5 | 5 | 5 |
Conclusion
It is concluded that the null hypothesis Ho is not rejected. Therefore, there is not enough evidence to claim that
there is a significant difference among the averages of the three groups at the α=0.05 significance level.
