Use the Two-Standard-Deviations F-Interval Procedure to Find the Required Confidence $\begin{array} { l l } \text { Men: } & 72,60,52,87,66,74,95,50,81,70,72 \\ \text { Women: } & 70,78,62,96,75,68,41,74,80,47,73,94,65 \end{array}$

Multiple Choice

Use the two-standard-deviations F-interval procedure to find the required confidence interval. Assume that independentsamples have been randomly selected from the two populations and that the variable under consideration is normallydistributed on both populations.
-A researcher is interested in comparing the amount of variation in women's scores on a certain test and the amount of variation in men's scores on the same test. Independent random samples of 11 Men and 13 women yielded the following scores. $\begin{array} { l l } \text { Men: } & 72,60,52,87,66,74,95,50,81,70,72 \\ \text { Women: } & 70,78,62,96,75,68,41,74,80,47,73,94,65 \end{array}$
Construct a $95 \%$ confidence interval for the ratio, $\sigma _ { 1 } / \sigma _ { 2 }$ , where $\sigma _ { 1 }$ is the population standard deviation of the scores for men and $\sigma _ { 2 }$ is the population standard deviation of the scores for women.
(Note: $s _ { 1 } = 13.754$ and $s _ { 2 } = 15.588$ )

• A)\(0.62\) to \(2.16\)
• B) \(0.26\) to \(3.20\)
• C) \(0.48\) to \(1.68\)
• D) \(0.48\) to \(1.62\)
