Data set 2 (a). For this series of questions you will perform an F ratio variance test on the following two samples:
Set A: 7, 9, 9, 11, 11, 13
Set B: 5, 5, 8, 10
You will be asked to provide:
(a, 4 pts) The value of F.
(b, 3 pts) The appropriate critical F value corresponding to an overall alpha value of 0.05 for the F test.
(c, 3 pts) Indicate whether the test suggests that the population variances are not significantly different, the variance of set A appears significantly smaller than data set B, or the variance of set A appears significantly larger than data set B.
PART C OPTIONS:
The population variances are not significantly different |
|
The variance of set A appears significantly smaller than data set B |
|
The variance of set A appears significantly larger than data set B |
