On-The-Ball, Inc., makes ball bearing that are used in tractors and other equipment. On the 8-to-4 shift, a random sample of 16 ball bearings is selected and the diameter are measured. The variance is 17.39. Later, a random sample of 13 ball measures is selected from 4-to-midnight shift, and the variance for the diameter measures is found to be 12.83. Test the hypothesis that the population variance for both shifts are equal.
