For the Samples Summarized Below, Test the Hypothesis At $\ddagger=.05$ That the Two Variances Are Equal

Multiple Choice

For the samples summarized below, test the hypothesis at $\ddagger=.05$ that the two variances are equal. $$\begin{array} { | l | c | c | } \hline & \text { Variance } & \text { Number of data values } \\\hline \text { Sample 1 } & 29 & 9 \\\hline \text { Sample } 2 & 10 & 19 \\\hline\end{array}$$

A) Accept the hypothesis because the test value 8.41 is greater than the critical value 3.01.
B) Reject the hypothesis because the test value 2.90 is less than the critical value 2.88.
C) Reject the hypothesis because the test value 8.41 is greater than the critical value 2.88.
D) Accept the hypothesis because the test value 2.90 is less than the critical value 3.01.
