Answer:
b. 8.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The objective is to study both processes to see if there is any difference between the costs of manufacturing.
An ANOVA was conducted for the variable:
Y: cost of manufacturing automobile transmissions
Factor: Process
Treatments: 1 and 2
The statistic for this test is
[tex]F= \frac{MS_{Treatment}}{MS_{Error}} ~~F_{k-1; n-k}[/tex]
Where
k= number of treatments
n= total number of observations
Degrees of freedom of the treatments: k-1= 2-1= 1
Degrees of freedom of errors: n-k= 20-2= 18
The critical region for this analysis is always one tailed to the right.
[tex]F_{k-1;n-k;1-\alpha }= F_{1;18;0.90}= 8.28[/tex]
I hope this helps!
