9. Prof J is investigating the amount of heat necessary to melt ice to water using two different designs. One design used an electric heater and the other design involved mixing ice with aluminium. A random sample of 26 measurements using electric heater produced a variance of 1128.96kj/kg and a random sample of 10 measurements using mixing ice with aluminium produced a variance of 1600kJ /kg. (a) Assuming that the samples above come from a normal population with variance o?, construct a 95% c.i of the standard deviation of the amount of heat necessary to melt ice to water using electric heater. (b) Construct a 95% c.i for the ratio of variances for the amount of heat between the two different designs above. State any further assumptions you make. (c) Based on the results obtained in (b), do you have reasons to believe the variance of heat measurement for both designs are equal?
