Answer:
0.9370
Step-by-step explanation:
The logarithmic table (of base 10) is used like this:
First turn the number in scientific notation, but in this case, the number is small and already in "scientific notation", 8.65.
Take the number 8.65 and divide it, first two numbers first and then all the others, one by one.
Locate 8.6 at the left, then the next number, 5 would be at the top, if you had any other number after the 5 you would look for it in the mean difference part, and then would add the number you get, divided by 1000 to the number you found from 8.6 and 5.

Answer:
This data suggest that there is more variability in low-dose weight gains than in control weight gains.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be the variance for the population of weight gains for rats given a low dose, and
the variance for the population of weight gains for control rats whose diet did not include the insecticide.
We want to test vs
. We have that the sample standard deviation for
female control rats was
g and for
female low-dose rats was
g. So, we have observed the value
which comes from a F distribution with
degrees of freedom (numerator) and
degrees of freedom (denominator).
As we want carry out a test of hypothesis at the significance level of 0.05, we should find the 95th quantile of the F distribution with 17 and 21 degrees of freedom, this value is 2.1389. The rejection region is given by {F > 2.1389}, because the observed value is 3.3176 > 2.1389, we reject the null hypothesis. So, this data suggest that there is more variability in low-dose weight gains than in control weight gains.
