Exercises  and  presented some data collected in a 1993 study by Susan Beckham and her colleagues. In this study, measurements of anterior compartment pressure (in millimeters of mercury) were taken for ten healthy runners and ten healthy cyclists. The researchers also obtained pressure measurements for the runners and cyclists at maximal \(O_{2}\) consumption. The data summary is given in the accompanying table.

	Runners	Cyclists
Condition	Mean		Mean
Rest
80% maximal \(O_{2}\)
consumption
Maximal \(O_{2}\) consumption

a Is there sufficient evidence to support a claim that the variability of compartment pressure    differs for runners and cyclists who are resting? Use \(\alpha=.05\)

b i What can be said about the attained significance level using a table in the appendix?
  ii Applet Exercise What can be said about the attained significance level using the appropriate applet?

c Is there sufficient evidence to support a claim that the variability in compartment pressure        between runners and cyclists differs at maximal \(O_{2}\) consumption? Use \(\(\alpha=.05\)\).

d i What can be said about the attained significance level using a table in the appendix?
  ii Applet Exercise What can be said about the attained significance level using the appropriate applet?
