Question

The following sample data were recently collected in the course of conducting a randomized block analysis of variance. Based on these sample data, what conclusions should be reached about blocking effectiveness and about the means of the three populations involved? Test using a significance level equal to 0.05.

A) Because F = 0.4195 < critical F = 4.103, we do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the three populations may have the same mean value.

B) Because F = 0.4195 < critical F = 4.103, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the three populations do not have the same mean value.

C) Because F = 0.1515 < critical F = 4.103, we do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the three populations may have the same mean value.

D) Because F = 0.1515 < critical F = 4.103, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the three populations do not have the same mean value.
