Testing the Population Variance • Example 12.3 (operation management application) – A container-filling machine is believed to fill 1 liter containers so consistently, that the variance of the filling will be less than 1 cc (.001 liter). – To test this belief a random sample of 25 1-liter fills was ...

... Under the assumptions of independence and equal population standard deviations, this statistic has a t -distribution with n1 + n2 -2 degrees of freedom. The pooled t procedures were common before statistical computer software was available because they are relatively easy to use. However, there are ...
