Answer to Question 1

F = 1.42; do not reject H0, there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the variance of the sales at two small grocery stores are different

Answer to Question 2

2 = 90.75 > 83.2976; reject H0, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population variance exceeds 80
