A basketball coach believes that the variance of the heights of adult male basketball players is different from the variance of heights for the general population of men. The sample variance of heights, measured in inches, for a random sample of 19 basketball players is 14.22. The sample variance for a random sample of 18 other men is 34.49. Assume that both population distributions are approximately normal and test the coach’s claim using a 0.10 level of significance. Does the evidence support the coach’s claim? Let male basketball players be Population 1 and men in general be Population 2.   Step 1 of 3:  State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. H0: σ21=σ22: Ha: σ21⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯σ22 Step 2 of 3:  Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places. Step 3 of 3:  Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.
