Question

question 13 of 13 step 7 of 8 consider the following table:

	ss	df	ms	f
error	3044.86
total	6479.32	16

step 7 of 8: what is the critical value of f at the 0.1 level? please round your answer to four decimal places, if necessary. answerhow to enter your answer (opens in new window) 1 point

Explanation:

Step1: Determine degrees of freedom for treatments and error

The degrees of freedom for treatments ($df_{treatments}$) is given as 3. The degrees of freedom for total ($df_{total}$) is 16. The degrees of freedom for error ($df_{error}$) is $df_{total}-df_{treatments}=16 - 3=13$.

Step2: Use F - distribution table

We want to find the critical value of F at the significance level $\alpha = 0.1$ with $df_{1}=3$ (degrees of freedom for treatments) and $df_{2}=13$ (degrees of freedom for error). Looking up in the F - distribution table or using statistical software, we find the value.
