Question 4.3

Testing Hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis:

\(H_0\) : \(\mu_1\) = \(\mu_2\) = \(\mu_3\) = \(\mu_4\)

\(\tau_i\) = 0 \(\forall\) i

Alternate Hypothesis:

\(H_a\) : Atleast one \(\mu_i\) differs

\(\tau_i \neq\) 0 \(\exists\) i

Linear Effects equation :

\(y_{i,j}\) = \(\mu\) + \(\tau_i\) + \(\beta_j\) + \(\epsilon_{ij}\)

\(\mu\) = Grand mean,

\(\tau_i\) = Fixed effects for treatment ‘i’

\(\beta_j\) = Block effect for ‘j’.

\(\epsilon_{i , j}\) = Random error

At \(\alpha\) = 0.05,

Conclusion :

As p value is 0.1211 > 0.05, we cannot reject the null hypothesis.

Question 4.16:

By using excel I found out the grand mean as \(\mu\) = 71.75

Averages of types of chemicals :

\(y_1.\) = 70.6

\(y_2.\) = 71.4

\(y_3.\) = 72.4

\(y_4.\) = 72.6

Averages of types of bolts :

\(y_.1\) = 73.5
\(y_.2\) = 68.5
\(y_.3\) = 75.5
\(y_.4\) = 72.75
\(y_.5\) = 68.5

values of \(\tau_i\) :

\(\tau_1\) = -1.15

\(\tau_2\) = -0.35

\(\tau_3\) = 0.65

\(\tau_4\) = 0.85

Values of \(\beta_j\) :

\(\beta_1\) = 1.75
\(\beta_2\) = -3.25
\(\beta_3\) = 3.75
\(\beta_4\) = 1
\(\beta_5\) = -3.25

Question 4.22:

Hypothesis :

Null hypothesis :

\(H_0\) : \(\tau_1\) = \(\tau_2\) = \(\tau_3\) = \(\tau_4\) = \(\tau_5\)

\(\tau_i\) = 0 ( \(\forall\) i )

Alternate Hypothesis :

\(H_a\) = atleast one \(\tau_i\) differs

\(\tau_i\neq\) 0 ( \(\exists\) i)

Linear Effects equation :

\(y_{i,j}\) = \(\mu\) + \(\tau_i\) + \(\beta_j\) + \(\alpha_k\) + \(\epsilon_{ijk}\)

\(\mu\) = Grand mean,

\(\tau_i\) = Effects for treatment ‘i’

\(\beta_j\) = Block-1 effect.

\(\alpha_k\) = Block-2 effect.

\(\epsilon_{ijk}\) = Random error.

i = number of treatments.

j = number of blocks.

k = replications.

At \(\alpha\) = 0.05 :

batch <- c(rep(1,5), rep(2,5), rep(3,5), rep(4,5),rep(5,5))
day <- c(rep(seq(1,5),5))
letter <- c("A", "B", "D", "C", "E",
            "C", "E", "A", "D", "B",
            "B", "A", "C", "E", "D",
            "D", "C", "E", "B", "A",
            "E", "D", "B", "A", "C")
observations <- c(8,7,1,7,3,
                  11,2,7,3,8,
                  4,9,10,1,5,
                  6,8,6,6,10,
                  4,2,3,8,8)

batch <- as.factor(batch)
letter <- as.factor(letter)
day <- as.factor(day)

performing ANOVA analysis:

anova <- aov(observations~batch+letter+day)
summary(anova)
##             Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value   Pr(>F)    
## batch        4  15.44    3.86   1.235 0.347618    
## letter       4 141.44   35.36  11.309 0.000488 ***
## day          4  12.24    3.06   0.979 0.455014    
## Residuals   12  37.52    3.13                     
## ---
## Signif. codes:  0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1

We observe that P- value of letter group is significantly smaller than 0.05. So we conclude that A,B,C,D,E have significant effect on the reaction time.
