Explanation

With reference to analysis of variance change of origin or scale will not affect the value of F.

 

The analysis of variance is a method of splitting the total variation of data into the constituent part which measures different sources of variation. The total variation split up into 2 components 

1 - Variation within the subgroups of samples

2 - Variation between the subgroups of the samples

The total variance is the sum of variation within the subgroups of samples and Variation between the subgroups of the samples.

F – Test = Variance ratio test

F = S21/S22

S12 = [1/(N1 – 1)]∑(X – X̅)2

S22 = {1/(N2 – 1)}∑(Y – Y̅)2

N1 = Size of first sample

N2 = Size of the second sample

X̅ and Y̅ are sample means of the random variable(X and Y)
