  A) -0.1 B) 2.9 C) 17.1 D) 7.9

Question 2

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.
   62.13 65.09 64.18 66.72 63.09 61.15 67.50 64.65
