Group 1 Group 2 Group 3 4.5 4.2 1.2 -0.3 0.7 2.3 (a) What are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to test whether or not the mean reduction in diastolic blood pressure is the same for the three groups? (b) Find the values of SSTreatments and SSE (c) What conclusion can you draw about the hypothesis test in (a)? Use α-01 (A) H0 : μ14 μ2+ μ3, HA : μǐ = 씨 for at least one pair (i,j) (B) H0 : μ1 = μ2 = u3. HA: μǐ关Hj for all pairs (i,j) (C) H0 : μ14 μ2关μ3. HA: μǐ = μ.j for all pairs (i,j) (D) H0 : μ 1 = u2 = u3. HA: u Hj for at least one pair (i,j) Problem #4(a): | Select hypothesis tested Treatments, SSE (numbers correct to 4 decimals) Problem #4(b) (A) Do not reject Ho since 1.881 s 12.4.
