question 51

Short Answer

Consider the following partial ANOVA table: $$\begin{array} { | l | c | c | c | c | } \hline \text { Source of Variation } & \text { SS } & d f & M S & F \\\hline \text { Treatments } & 75 & * & 25 & 6.67 \\\hline \text { Error } & 60 & * & 3.75 & \\\hline \text { Total } & 135 & 19 & & \\\hline\end{array}$$ The numbers of degrees of freedom for numerator and denominator, respectively, (identified by asterisks) are: $\begin{array}{|l|l|}\hline\text { A. } & 4 \text { and } 15 . \\\hline \text { B. } & 3 \text { and } 16 . \\\hline \text { C. } & 15 \text { and } 4 . \\\hline \text { D. } & 16 \text { and } 3 . \\\hline\end{array}$
