5-19. The yield of a chemical process is being studied. The two factors of interest are temperature and pressure. Three levels of each factor are selected; however, only nine runs can be made in one day. The experimenter runs a complete replicate of the design on each day. The data are shown in the following table. Analyze the data, assuming that the days are blocks.
Temperature Low Medium High
250 86.3 88.5 89.1
Day 1 Pressure 260 84.0 87.3 90.2
270 85.8 89.0 91.3

270 87.3 90.3 93.7

According to the output above; block, temperature and pressure are significant
influence the yield of the chemical process. That were shown by the P-value was smaller than α = 0.05 or F calc < F table, that is, F (1, 8; 0.05) = 5.32 and F (2, 8; 0.05) = 4.46. The other way, interaction between temperature and pressure is not significant

with P-value 0.173 that is bigger than α = 0.05, or we can conclude from the F calc = 2.10 < F (4, 8; 0.05) = 3.84 which mean fail to reject H 0.
Then we were going to analyze with removing the insignificant, the interaction between temperatures and pressures from the model, and we got, MTB > Name C9 "RESI2" MTB > GLM 'Responses' = C3 C1 C2; SUBC> GFourpack C6; SUBC> Brief 2; SUBC> Means C1 C2; SUBC> Residuals 'RESI2'.

With α = 0.05, block and temperature are significant influence the yield of the
chemical process, and pressure is significant at α = 0.10. R-sq = 93.15% shown that model are presented the 93.15% of the data.
Then we were going to analyze using Tukey’s Method, to see the difference of the factor/treatment effect where the sample size is the same. Here we got the result,

From the above output, we got that treatment on temperatures are significant with
three levels; high, medium and low, according to the different of lower, center, and upper value that is not exceed the null. It was also shown through the hypothesis
testing with P-value < α = 0.05, that was, reject H0 or there was significant effect
from the three temperatures given. Those different might because of the levels that were just said to be high, medium, and low without any further explanation of what high, medium, and low are.
From the output bellow, the three pressures given are not significantly different
yielding the chemical process. It was shown that among lower, center, and upper value are exceed the null or testing hypothesis that gave the P-value bigger than α = 0.05, that is, fail to reject H0. It might because of the distance of 250, 260, and 270 were just 10 that were particularly not different enough.

Then we have to check whether the residual was normal, and from the graph bellow we can conclude that with P-value = 0.138, that is, bigger than α = 0.05 then we fail to reject H0 or the residual was normal.
