3. Do different grades of gasoline affect mileage? A test car made 5 trial runs with each of three different grades of gasoline. The resulting mileage is recorded in the table below.
Unknown environment 'tabular'
I sample siz
(ΣxTOT)2N
 Test to determine if there is any difference in the population mean mileage with th  gasoline. Use a 1% significance level. H0:μ1=μ2=M3 at lecst 2 d 
F=1.326 Fail to reject H0, we are 1%
F2=6.93 there is cosig dif in mileage with dif grades of gasoline.
4. At a local high school the freshman women's basketball team has a friendly rivalry with the women's varsity basketball team. They record and compare the number of points each team scores in every practice game. A random sample of 31 records for the freshman team shows a sample mean 63.2 points with a sample variance of 590.49 points 2. An independent random sample of 26 records from the varsity women's basketball team has a sample mean of 96. . points and a sample variance of 268.96 points 2. Use the 5% level of significance to test the claim that the varsity team is more consistent in scoring than the freshman team.
H0:ρ12=ρ22F=4.820

Answer

\boxed{\text{Reject the null hypothesis. The varsity team is more consistent in scoring than the freshman team.}}

Steps

Step 1 :Calculate the F-statistic: F=590.49268.96=2.1955

Step 2 :Calculate the p-value: p-value = 0.0241

Step 3 :Compare p-value to significance level: 0.0241 < 0.05

Step 4 :\boxed{\text{Reject the null hypothesis. The varsity team is more consistent in scoring than the freshman team.}}
