Answer:
a. 3.35
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
an experiment with 3 groups consist of 10 participant in each group.
This implies that:
number of group k = 3
number of participants n = 10
N = nk
N = 10 × 3 = 30
The degree of freedom within can be calculate as:
dfw = N - k
dfw = 30 - 3
dfw = 27
The degree of freedom for the critical value
dfc = n- 1
dfc = 3 - 1
dfc = 2
At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05
The F critical value from the standard normal F table
i.e
