The table given below shows a sample of the driving distances (in yards) for two golfers. At α = 0.10, can you conclude that the variances of the driving distances differ between the two golfers?

(a) Identify the claim and state H₀ and H_a,

(b) Find the critical value and identify the rejection region,

(c) Find the test statistic F,

(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis,

(e) Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim. Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. If convenient, use technology.
