Two methods were used to measure fluorescence lifetime of a dye. The average result for Method 1 is = 1.382 ns with a standard deviation of s1 = 0.039 and n1= 7. The average result for Method 2 is = 1.346 ns with a standard deviation of s2 = 0.015 and n2= 5. Is there a difference between the two methods at the 95% confidence level using F test?
