A random sample of 13 permanents from before and 16 after were timed. The results of the tests are listed below. Assume the two samples were taken from normal populations with equal variances. Do the sample variances present sufficient evidence to indicate that the population variance before is greater than the variance after? Test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05. Interpret your results.
