Reading Program Summer reading programs are very popular with children. At the Citizens Library, Team Ramona read an average of 23.2 books with a standard deviation of 5.8. There were 16 members on this team. Team Beezus read an average of 26.1 books with a standard deviation of 4.0. There were 23 members on this team. Did the variances of the two teams differ? Use =α0.05. Use the traditional method of hypothesis testing and let σ1 be the standard deviation for Team Ramona. Assume that all variables are normally distributed. State the hypotheses and identify the claim. H0: Claim or not a Claim H1: Claim or not a claim This Hypothesis test is a one-tailed or two-tailed test. Find the Critical Value(s): Compute the test Value: Make the decision: Summarize the results.

State the hypotheses and identify the claim.
H0: Claim or not a Claim
H1: Claim or not a claim
This Hypothesis test is a one-tailed or two-tailed test.
Find the Critical Value(s):
Compute the test Value:
Make the decision:
Summarize the results.
There are two independent samples which are Team Ramona and Team Beezus.
We have to test whether the variances of the two teams differ or not.
This is F-test for the two population variances.
