Answer:

We Reject the Null, H0 and conclude that the volume of juice filled by old machine varies more than volume filled by new machine

Explanation:

Given the data:

Old machine: 8.2, 8.0, 7.9, 7.9, 8.5, 7.9, 8.1,8.1, 8.2, 7.9

Sample size, n = 10

Using calculator :

s1² = 0.37889.

New machine: 8.0, 8.1, 8.0, 8.1, 7.9, 8.0, 7.9, 8.0, 8.1

Sample size, n = 9

s2² = 0.006111

Hypothesis :

H0 : s1² = s2²

H1 : s1² > s2²

New machine :

s2² = 0.006111 ; n = 9

Using the Ftest :

Ftest statistic = larger sample variance / smaller sample variance

Ftest statistic = 0.37889 / 0.006111

Ftest statistic = 62.0

Decision region :

Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value

The FCritical value at 0.05

DFnumerator = 10 - 1 = 9

DFdenominator = 9 - 1 = 8

Fcritical(0.05, 9, 8) = 3.388

Since 62 > 3.388 ; Reject H0 and conclude that volume filled by old machine varies more than volume filled by new machine
