Question

An experiment was conducted to compare the variances of two independent normal populations. The null hypothesis was H₀: σ₁² = σ₂² versus H₁: σ₁² > σ₂². The sample sizes from both populations were 16, and the computed value of the F-statistic was f₀=1.75. Find a bound on the P-value for this test statistic.

The bound on the P-value for the test statistic :

A: ( 0.05 < p-value < 0.1 )

B: (0.01 < p-value < 0.025)

C: (0.025 < p-value < 0.05)

D: (p-value < 0.01)

E: (p-value > 0.25 )

F: (0.1 < p-value < 0.25 )
