Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is used to determine if there is a significant difference between the means of two or more groups. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between the means, and the alternative hypothesis is that there is a difference.

First, we'll perform ANOVA to determine if there is a difference between the machines. The table below summarizes the calculations:

State whether the following statements are true or false and also give the reason in support of your answer.
c) In SRSWOR, the possible numbers of sample of size n from a population of size N if sampling is done with replacement is Nn
d) One-way analysis of variance is a generalization of the two sample t-test.
e) If experimental error is reduced considerably and the efficiency of the design is decreased.
f) If strata are heterogeneous then stratified sampling schemes provides estimates with greater precision.
g) If one wants to convert random numbers selected from two digit numbers 00-99 to uniformly distributed U (0, 1) variables then one has to divide them by 99.

Assume that you have to perform a sample survey for Family expenditure of the faculty of Indira Gandhi National Open University. Then explain the main steps involved in the planning and execution of that sample survey.

An experiment was planned to study the effect of Sulphate, Potash and Super Phosphate on the yield of potatoes. All the combinations of 2 levels of Super Phosphate [0 cent (p0) and 5 cent (p1)/ acre] and two levels of Sulphate and Potash [0 cent (k0) and 5 cent (k1)/acre] were studied in a randomised block design with 4 replications each. The (1/70) yields [lb per plot = (1/70) acre] obtained are given in table below:
