Answer:
SSbetween is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
A research study comparing three treatments with n = 5 in each treatment produce;
that is: n₁ = 5, n₂ = 5, n₃ = 5
T₁ = 5, T₂ = 10, T₃ = 15,
SS₁ = 6, SS₂ = 9, SS₃ = 9
∑x² = 94
First, we obtain the grand total;
G = T₁ + T₂ + T₃ = 5 + 10 + 15 = 30
N = n₁ + n₂ + n₃ = 5 + 5 + 5 = 15
Total SS = ∑x² - ( G²/N )
we substitute
Total SS = 94 - ( (30)²/ 15 )
Total SS = 94 - ( 900 / 15 )
Total SS = 94 - 60
Total SS = 34
To get the SSbetween or Between SS;
Between SS = ∑( T²/n ) - ( G²/N )
Between SS = ∑( (5)²/5 + (10)²/5 + (15)²/5 ) - ( (30)²/ 15 )
Between SS = ∑( 25/5 + 100/5 + 225/5 ) - ( 900 / 15 )
Between SS = ∑( 5 + 20 + 45 ) - 60
Between SS = 70 - 60
Between SS = 10
Therefore, SSbetween is 10
