Question

Consider the following information. SSTR = 6750 H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 SSE = 8000 Ha: At least one mean is different If n = 5, the mean square due to error (MSE) equals a. 1687.5. b. 400. c. 500. d. 2250.

Answer 1

d. 2250.

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of mean square due to error (MSE) is shown below:-

Since there are four treatments i.e H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4

And, the SSTR is 6,750

Based on this, the mean square due to error is

=
`(SSTR)/(n-1)`

`= (6,750)/(4-1)`

=
`(6,750)/(3)`

= 2,250

Hence, the mean square due to error is 2,250

Therefore the correct option is d.

All the other information is not relevant. Hence ignored it
