1. Consider the following measurements of the heat-producing capacity of the coal produced by two mines (in
millions of calories per ton):

What is the probability that the two population variances are equal? (Add the graph)
M1=[8260,8130,8350,8070,8340];
M2=[7950,7890,7900,8140,7920,7840];
X1=mean(M1);
X2=mean(M2);

p = 0.6564

R=La probabilidad de que las varianzas poblacionales sean iguales es de 0.6564 y mi estadistico en
este caso me da 1.4423

2. Assuming that the sample variances are continuous measurements, find the probability that a random sample
of 30 observations, from a normal population with variance , will have a sample variance of that is

(a) greater than 7.338;
