The accompanying data set lists full IQ scores for a random sample of subjects with medium lead levels in their blood and another random sample of subjects with high lead levels in their blood. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that IQ scores of subjects with medium lead levels vary more than IQ scores of subjects with high lead levels.C. H0:σ12=σ22H0:σ12=σ22H1:σ12=σ22

State hypotheses: State the null and alternative hypotheses.H0:σ12=σ22 (The variances are equal)H_1: \sigma_1^2 > \sigma_2^2 (The variance of the first group is greater than the second group)
Identify statistic: Identify the test statistic. Given test statistic = 2.82
Identify P-value: Identify the P-value. Given P-value is missing, so we need to find it using the test statistic and the appropriate distribution table or software.
Find P-value: Find the P-value using the F-distribution table or software for the given test statistic.Since we don't have the actual data or distribution table, we cannot calculate the P-value here. Normally, you would look up the value of 2.82 in the F-distribution table for the appropriate degrees of freedom or use statistical software to find the P-value.
Compare to significance level: Compare the P-value to the significance level.If P-value < 0.01, we reject the null hypothesis.If P-value > 0.01, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.Since we don't have the P-value, we cannot complete this step.
