Explanation / Answer

Calculate the sum of squares of experimental error.

SSE = 7996.59 - 4763.8 = 3232.79

Calculate the degrees of freedom among treatments

dF(Treatments) = 4763.8/1190.95 = 4

Calculate the degrees of freedom of experimental error.

dF(error) = 15 - 4 = 11

Calculate the mean square of the experimental error.

MSE = SSE/ dF(error) = 3232.79/11 = 293.89

What is the sum of square of the sample means about the grand mean?  

SS (Sample means about the grand mean) = SS(Treatments) = 4763.80

What is the variation of the individual measurements about their respective means?

SS(error) = 1190.95

What is the critical value of F at the o.05 level?

F(critical) = F(0.05, 4,11) = 3.3567

Is F significant at 0.05? Yes or No   

Yes F is significanta at 0.05
