A factorial experiment was designed to test for any significantdifferences in the time needed to perform English to foreignlanguage translations with two computerized language translators.Because the type of language translated was also considered asignificant factor, translations were made with both systems forthree different languages: Spanish, French, and German. Use thefollowing data for translation time in hours.

Test for any significant differences due to language translatorsystem (Factor A), type of language (Factor B), and interaction.Use  = .05.

  1. Complete the following ANOVAtable (to 2 decimals, if necessary). Round p-value to fourdecimal places.

  1. What is your conclusion with respect to Factor A?
    1. Factor A is significant
    2. Factor A is not significant
  2. The p-value for Factor B is
    1. less than .005

      What is your conclusion with respect to Factor B?
      1. Factor B is significant
      2. Factor B is not significant
  3. The p-value for the interaction of factors A and B is
    1. less than .005
    2. between .005 and .0125

      What is your conclusion with respect to the interaction of FactorsA and B?
      1. The interaction of factors A and B is significant
      2. The interaction of factors A and B is not significant

a)
p-value of Factor A = 0.0975
greater than 0.05

since p-value > 0.05
Factor A is not significant
b)
p-value of factor B = 0.013824
between 0.0125 and 0.025

since p-value < 0.05
Factor B is significant


c) p-value of Interaction = 0.26787
greater than 0.05

since p-value > 0.05
Interaction is not significant
