There is an archaeological study area located in southwestern New Mexico. Potsherds are broken pieces of prehistoric Native American clay vessels. One type of painted ceramic vessel is called Mimbres classic black-on-white. At three different sites, the number of such sherds was counted in local dwelling excavations.

Site I Site II Site III
61 25 12
39 15 32
22 57 66
12 67 20
83 11
52 15
27

Shall we reject or not reject the claim that there is no difference in population mean Mimbres classic black-on-white sherd counts for the three sites? Use a 1% level of significance.

(a) Find SSTOT, SSBET, and SSW and check that SSTOT = SSBET + SSW. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

SSTOT =
SSBET =
SSW =

b) Find d.f.BET, d.f.W, MSBET, and MSW. (Round your answers for MSBET, and MSW to two decimal places.)

d.f.BET =
d.f.W =
MSBET =
MSW =

c)Find the value of the sample F statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

d) What are the degrees of freedom?

d.f.N =
d.f.D =

(e) Find the P-value of the sample test statistic.

P-value > 0.100

0.050 < P-value < 0.100    

0.025 < P-value < 0.050

0.010 < P-value < 0.025

0.001 < P-value < 0.010

P-value < 0.001

(f) Make a summary table for your ANOVA test. (Round your answers for SS to three decimal places, your MS and F Ratio to two decimal places, and your P-value to four decimal places.)

Answer #1

applying ANOVA:

SSTOT = 8729.059
SSBET = 975.630
SSW = 7753.429

b)

d.f.BET = 2.00
d.f.W = 14.00
MSBET = 487.82
MSW = 553.82

c)F test statistic =0.88

d)

d.f.N =2
d.f.D =14

e) P-value > 0.100

f)
