Question

Consider the hypothesis statement shown below.

Upper H 0H0:

sigma Subscript 1 Superscript 221equals=sigma Subscript 2 Superscript 222

Upper H 1H1:

sigma Subscript 1 Superscript 221not equalssigma Subscript 2 Superscript 222

State your conclusion given that

s 1s1equals=65,

s 2s2equals=49,

n 1n1equals=25,

Calculate the appropriate test statistic.

The test statistic is

nothing.

(Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Determine the critical values:

(Round to three decimal places as needed)

Explanation / Answer

The test statistic is =(s1/s2)2 = (65/49)2 =1.76

for (n1-1=24) deegree of freeedom in numrator and (n2-1=28) degree of freedom in denominator critical values are

=0.449 ; 2.174
