Question:
Radiation in Baby Teeth Listed below are amounts of strontium-90 (in millibecquerels, or mBq, per gram of calcium) in a simple random sample of baby teeth obtained from Pennsylvania residents and New York residents born after 1979 (based on data from “An Unexpected Rise in Strontium-90 in U.S. Deciduous Teeth in the 1990s,” by Mangano et al., Science of the Total Environment, Vol. 317). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that amounts of strontium-90 from Pennsylvania residents vary more than amounts from New York residents.
