Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate Degrees of Freedom Total

The total degrees of freedom (\(df_{total}\)) is calculated as the sum of the degrees of freedom between groups (\(df_{between}\)) and within groups (\(df_{within}\)): \[ df_{total} = df_{between} + df_{within} = 2 + 9 = 11 \]

Step 2: Calculate Sum of Squares Total

The total sum of squares (\(SS_{total}\)) is the sum of the sum of squares between groups (\(SS_{between}\)) and within groups (\(SS_{within}\)): \[ SS_{total} = SS_{between} + SS_{within} = 56 + 27 = 83 \]

Step 3: State the Hypotheses

The hypotheses for the ANOVA test are defined as follows:

  • Null Hypothesis (\(H_0\)): All the means are equal.
  • Alternative Hypothesis (\(H_1\)): Not all the means are equal.

Final Answer

The calculated degrees of freedom total is \(11\), the calculated sum of squares total is \(83\), and the hypotheses are:

  • \(H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2 = \mu_3\)
  • \(H_1: \text{At least one } \mu_i \text{ is different}\)

Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{H_0: \text{All the means are equal; } H_1: \text{Not all the means are equal.}} \]
