Samples Were Drawn from Three Populations $n _ { 1 } = 7 , n _ { 2 } = 7$

Multiple Choice

Samples were drawn from three populations. The sample sizes were $n _ { 1 } = 7 , n _ { 2 } = 7$ and $n _ { 3 } = 5$ The sample means were $\bar { x } _ { 1 } = 1.27 , \bar { x } _ { 2 } = 1.99 \text {, and } \bar { x } _ { 3 } = 1.49 \text {. }$ The sample standard deviations were $s _ { 1 } = 0.25 , s _ { 2 } = 0.28 , \text { and } s _ { 3 } = 0.25$ The grand mean is $\bar { x } = 1.593158$
