To determine the organic material in a dried lake bed, the percent carbon by mass is measured at two different locations. In order to compare the means of the two different locations, it must first be determined whether the standard deviations of the two locations are different.To determine the organic material in a dried lake ted, the percent carbon by mass is measured at two different locations.

Answer:

F statistic = 11.3 ;

-1.02

Step-by-step explanation:

____Location1(%C) ____ Location2(%C)

1 ______ 10.40 _________ 10.10

2 _____ 10.20 _________ 10.90

3 ______10.30 _________ 10.20

4 ______10.40 _________ 10.70

5 ______10.20 _________ 10.40

F = larger sample variance / smaller sample variance

Using calculator :

Sample standard deviation (s)

s1² = 0.01

s2² = 0.113

F = s2² / s1²

F = 0.113 / 0.01

F = 11.3

Yes, the two standard deviations for the locations are significantly different at the 95% confidence level.

B.)

Tvalue

x1 = 10.3 ; x2 = 10.46

μ1 = 10.30 ; μ2 = 10.46

(10.30 - 10.46) / sqrt[(0.01/5) + (0.113/5)]

-0.16 / 0.1568438

-1.02
