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
   63.80 64.21 60.17 68.28 66.49 62.10 65.73 64.72
