Hypothesis Tests Concerning Variances
Till now the tests we saw were related to population mean. We can also conduct hypothesis tests concerning the variance of the population.
There are two types of tests:
- Tests concerning the value of a single population variance
- Tests concerning the differences between two population variances
The hypothesis will be formed as follows:
Where is the population variance and is the hypothesized value of the variance.
