A study compared glucose levels among four age groups: toddlers, teenagers, adult, and seniors. The total sample size was n =30 (10 toddlers, 10 teenagers, 5 adult, and 5 seniors). A one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the population mean levels for the four age groups. 1. What are the numerator and denominator degrees of freedom for the F-test? a. 10 for numerator and 30 for denominator. b. None of the choices. c. 4 for numerator and 30 for denominator. d. 3 for numerator and 26 for denominator. e. 3 for numerator and 29 for denominator.   2. The sum of squares for groups is SS Groups = 60. What is the Mean Square for groups (MS Groups)?    a. None of the choices. b. 60

b. None of the choices.

c. 4 for numerator and 30 for denominator.
d. 3 for numerator and 26 for denominator.
e. 3 for numerator and 29 for denominator.
 
2. The sum of squares for groups is SS Groups = 60. What is the Mean Square for groups (MS Groups)? 
 
a. None of the choices.
b. 60
c. 20
d. 30
e. 15
 
 3. The p-value for the F-test is = 0.02. Using the α = 0.05 significance level, what is the conclusion?
 
a. The null hypothesis is not rejected: the means are not significantly different.
 
b. The null hypothesis is not rejected: the means are significantly different.
c. The null hypothesis is rejected: the means are not significantly different.
