F-test, F-Distribution

The F-test

The F-test is designed to test the hypothesis that the variances calculated from two samples are estimates of the same population variance. It is valid when the samples are independent and the populations from which they are drawn are Normal.

The F-test for comparing two variances Example see: (referenced from http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/doc/ftest-two-sample-for-variances-tool.shtml)


Thus, we accept the hypothesis.
