Question
Two college instructors are interested in whether or not there is any variation in the way they grade math exams. They each grade the same set of 10 exams. The first instructor's grades have a variance of 41.59. The second instructor's grades have a variance of 65.44. What is the Test Statistic to test the Null Hypothesis H0: σ12 ≥ σ22 against the alternative Ha: σ12 < σ2 2 ?

Last semester, 400 students completed his class: 150 freshmen, 100 sophomores, 100 juniors, and 50 seniors. At end of the semester, 80 students earned an A, 148 earned a B, and 172 earned a C. The distribution of grades is shown in the following table. Do a chi-square test at alpha=0.05. What is the null hypothesis for this test? A. The letter grades of the students are significantly different. B. The letter grades of the students are dependent of the level of college education. C. The letter grades of the students are identical. D. The letter grades of the students are independent of the level of college education.arrow_forward
