that the sample has been randomly selected. Heights of men aged 25 to 34 have a standard deviation of 2.9. Use
a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the heights of women aged 25 to 34 have a different standard
deviation. The heights (in inches) of 16 randomly selected women aged 25 to 34 are listed below. Round the
sample standard deviation to five decimal places. 62.1365.0964.1866.7263.0961.1567.5064.6563.8064.2160.1768.2866.4962.1065.7364.72\begin{array} { | l l l l l l l l | } \hline 62.13 & 65.09 & 64.18 & 66.72 & 63.09 & 61.15 & 67.50 & 64.65 \\63.80 & 64.21 & 60.17 & 68.28 & 66.49 & 62.10 & 65.73 & 64.72 \\\hline\end{array}
