Multiple Choice

Consider the following ANOVA table. $$\begin{array} { l l l l } \text { Source } & \text { Sum } & \text { Degrees } & \text { Mean } \\\text { of Variation } & \text { of Squares } & \text { of Freedom } & \text { Square } \\\text { Between Treatments } & 2073.6 & 4 & \\\text { Between Blocks } & 6000 & 5 & 1200 \\\text { Error } & & 20 & 288 \\\text { Total } & & 29 &\end{array}$$
The null hypothesis for this ANOVA problem is

• A) \(\mu\)₁ = \(\mu\)₂ = \(\mu\)₃ = \(\mu\)₄.
• B) \(\mu\)₁ = \(\mu\)₂ = \(\mu\)₃ = \(\mu\)₄ = \(\mu\)₅.
• C) \(\mu\)₁ = \(\mu\)₂ = \(\mu\)₃ = \(\mu\)₄ = \(\mu\)₅ =\(\mu\)₆.
• D) \(\mu\)₁ = \(\mu\)₂ = ... = \(\mu\)₂₀.
