6. A random sample of $n_1 = 6$ provides a sample variance of $s_1^2 = 20$ while another random sample of $n_2 = 6$ provides a sample variance of $s_2^2 = 87$. Test to see whether the population variances are the same at the 0.05 level.

Consider the hypothesis test H0:Ī¼1ā„Ī¼2 against H1:Ī¼1<Ī¼2. Suppose that sample sizes are n1=15 and n2=15, that xĢ1=6.0 and xĢ2=8.0 and that s1=2 and s2=2.497. Assume that the data are drawn from normal distributions. Use Ī±=0.05. a. Use the appropriate test to confirm whether you can assume the variances Ļ1 and Ļ2 are equal. b. Based on the results from (a), test the stated hypothesis.

Suppose two independent random samples sizes n1 and n2 that have been taken from two normally distributed populations having variances Ļ1 and Ļ2 give sample variances of s1^2 and s2^2. (a) Test Ho: Ļ1^2 = Ļ2^2 versus Ha: Ļ1^2 ā Ļ2^2 with Ī± = 0.05. What do you conclude? (Round your answers to decimal places) F0.025 (Click to select) Ho: Ļ1^2 = Ļ2^2 (b) Test Ho: Ļ1^2 ā¤ Ļ2^2 versus Ha: Ļ1^2 > Ļ2^2 with Ī± = 0.05. What do you conclude? (Round your answers to decimal places) F.05 (Click to select) Ho: Ļ1^2 ā¤ Ļ2^2

Given the following null and alternative hypotheses: Ho: Ļ^2 = 16 Ha: Ļ^2 ā 16 Use the test statistic approach to test the above null hypothesis at Ī± = 0.01 based on n = 20 and s = 9. Question 5: Two independent random samples selected from two normal populations gave the following results: Sample 1: n1 = 8, s1 = 10 Sample 2: n2 = 10, s2 = 12 Use the test statistic approach at Ī± = 0.01 level of significance to test whether the first population variance is smaller than the second population variance.
