This is a type of permutation problems in statistics. A permutation is a way in which the set of numbers can be arranged or order. In mathematics permutation relates to the act of ordering or arranging all the set of numbers into some sequence or order, or if the set is already in order or arranged its element the process is called permuting. Well, there are seven ways the first place can come in, then 6 ways for a second, and then 5 ways for third... so we multiply the 3 ways to get on how many different ways the first three finishers come in. 7*6*5 = 210 ways

A researcher claims that the variation in the salaries of elementary school teachers is greater than the variation in the salari
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  \sigma^2_1 = \sigma^2 _2

The alternative hypothesis is H_a :  \sigma_1 ^2 > \sigma^2_2

b

F_{critical} = 1.8608

c

F = 2.9085

d

    The decision rule is  

Reject the null hypothesis

e

There is sufficient evidence to support the researchers claim

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The first sample size is  n_1 = 30

 The sample variance for elementary school is  s^2_1 = 8324

 The second sample size is  n_2 = 30

  The sample variance for the secondary school is  s^2_2 = 2862

   The significance level is  \alpha = 0.05

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  \sigma^2_1 = \sigma^2 _2

The alternative hypothesis is H_a :  \sigma_1 ^2 > \sigma^2_2

Generally from the F statistics table  the critical value of \alpha = 0.05 at first and  second degree of freedom df_1 = n_1 - 1 = 30 - 1 = 29 and  df_2 = n_2 - 1 = 30 - 1 = 29 is  

         F_{critical} = 1.8608

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

       F = \frac{s_1^2 }{s_2^2}

=>   F = \frac{8324 }{2862}

=>   F = 2.9085

Generally from the value obtained we see that  F >  F_{critical } Hence

   The decision rule is  

Reject the null hypothesis

    The conclusion is  

  There is sufficient evidence to support the researchers claim
