10. Hypothesis Testing for Two Samples / Two Variances and F Distribution / Problema 1
Problema 1

A pharmaceutical researcher compares the variability in blood pressure reductions between two independent treatment groups. The sample variances are sA2=6.4s_{A}^2=6.4 and sB2=4.9s_{B}^2=4.9. She defines the FF test statistic as F=sA2sB2F=\(\frac{s_{A}\)^2}{s_{B}^2}.
True or False: An FF statistic calculated this way can ever be a negative number.
