Answer:
a
The null hypothesis is  
 The alternative hypothesis is 
b
 
c

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  
  The sample variance for elementary school is  
  The second sample size is  
   The sample variance for the secondary school is  
    The significance level is  
The null hypothesis is  
 The alternative hypothesis is 
Generally from the F statistics table  the critical value of 
 at first and  second degree of freedom 
 and  
 is  
          
Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as 
        
=>   
=>   
Generally from the value obtained we see that  
 Hence 
    The decision rule is  
Reject the null hypothesis 
     The conclusion is   
   There is sufficient evidence to support the researchers claim
