Question
A professor claims that exam scores for non-accounting majors are more variable than for accounting majors. Random samples of 29 non-accounting majors and 29 accounting majors are taken from a final exam. Test at the 1% level the null hypothesis that the two population variances are equal against the alternative that the true variance is higher for the non-accounting majors. Assume the populations are normally distributed. Non-Accounting Accounting H₁:0² = 0² H₁:0² > 0² C. H₂:0² = 0² H₁:0² #0² nx = 29 ny = 29 S The critical value is X 2 represented by Ho and the alternative hypothesis is represented by H₁. Choose the correct answer below. OB. Ho: 0²20² H₁:0² <0² = 1611.016 = 446.238 2 OD. H₂:0² = 0² o H₁:0² <0² The test statistic is F = 3.610. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
