j =1

MSE = SSE /(nT - k) = 66/(15 - 3) = 5.5


c.

F = MSTR /MSE = 285/5.5 = 51.82


Using F table (2 degrees of freedom numerator and 12 denominator), p-value is less than .01
Actual p-value = .0000
Because p-value = .05, we reject the null hypothesis that the means of the three populations are
equal.

Using F table (2 degrees of freedom numerator and 21 denominator), p-value is greater than .10
Actual p-value = .7660
Because p-value > = .05, we cannot reject the null hypothesis that the means of the three

Factor A: Actual p-value = .2846. Because p-value > = .05, Factor A (translator) is not significant.
Factor B: Actual p-value = .0308. Because p-value = .05, Factor B (language translated) is
significant.
Interaction: Actual p-value = .2963. Because p-value > = .05, Interaction is not significant.
