An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of the concentrations of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and calcium chloride (CaCl2) on the amount of black mud precipitate in the treatment of alkaline wastewater. There were three levels of each concentration, and two replicates of the experiment were made at each combination of levels. The relevant statistical analysis is provided in the following table: (image) a) The appropriate statistical analysis to test would be: I. One-way ANOVA II. Two-way ANOVA III. Three-way ANOVA IIIV. Two-Sample t-test b) Does there appear to be an interaction between concentration of sulfuric acid and calcium chloride at the .05 level? What does this say about the additive model? c) Can the effect of concentration of sulfuric acid on amount of black mud precipitate in the treatment of alkaline wastewater be described by interpreting the main effects of concentration of sulfuric acid? If so, interpret the main effects at the .05 level, including the appropriate test statistic and p-value. If not, explain why not.
