The main effect method is significant (p<0.0001) and the main effect mix is also significant
(p<0.0001), but the interaction between those two main effects is not significant (p=0.1052).

So we reject Ho and conclude the main effect method is significant.

Test β k , F=MSB/MSrB
Test (αβ ) jk, F=MSAB/MSrAB

For main effect mix, it’s significant since p<0.0001.

For the main effect interaction, it is not significant since p=0.1052.

AC=-4.41667*2=-8.83
BC=-1.41667*2=-2.83
ABC=-1.08333*2=-2.17
Effects B, C, AC appear to be large.

(b) Based on the ANOVA table provided under (a), B, C, and AC are significant since their p values are
below 0.05.
(c) We only consider A, B, C, AC in the model.

X1=1 if A=+, x1=-1 if A= - . Same for B and C.
Plug in the parameter estimates, the fitted regression model is
y=40.83+0.167 x 1+5.67 x 2+ 3.42 x 3−4.42 x 1 x 3

(d) QQ plot below shows the residual is normally distributed.

Residual plots below include residual vs predicted values, residual vs A, residual vs B, residual vs C.
We can’t see patterns from those plots. So the constant variance assumption was not violated.
(e) Interaction plot of A and C:

Main effect plot for B and C:

 I would recommend “+” level for main effect B and C, but “ –“ level for effect A to make the
response largest.
(f) y=40.83+0.167 x 1+5.67 x 2+ 3.42 x 3−4.42 x 1 x 3
To maximize the response, let x2 at high level be 1.
y=46.5+0.167 x 1+3.42 x 3−4.42 x 1 x 3

From the contour plot, we can see when A=-1 and C=1, the response can get its highest value. The
conclusion is consistent with my answer in (e).

3. (a) Effect estimates are in the table below.

From the QQ plot above, we can see that effects of AD, A, and D are potentially significant.
(b) In the model which only includes effect A, D, and AD, we can see the main effects A and D, and
the interaction effect AD are all significant. This confirms my findings in (a).
(c) We only consider A, D, AD in the model.

Plug in the parameter estimates, the fitted regression model is
y=776.06−50.81 x 1+153.06 x 4−76.81 x 1 x 4

(d) The residual is normally distributed based on the QQ plot below. The residual plots of residual vs
predicted values, residual vs A, residual vs B are displayed below as well. We don’t see any violation
of the constant variance assumption.
(e) The ANOVA table of the 22 design is as below. We can see that factor A, D and interaction effect
AD are significant in this model.

(f) The difference of level means of effect D depends on levels of effect A. So effect A and D have
interaction.
(g) When A= - , D= +, the response has the largest value.

(h) If it’s necessary to let the response be 800, I would recommend the A= +, D= + based on the
contour plot in (g). ¿ 776.06−50.81+153.06−76.81=801.5
