Use the following information to answer the next two exercises (#5 & #6).
Suppose a group is interested in determining whether teenagers obtain their
drivers licenses at approximately the same average age across the country.
Suppose that the following data are randomly collected from five teenagers
in each region of the country. The numbers represent the age at which
teenagers obtained their drivers licenses.

watch their favorite news station are the same.
Suppose that Table 13.24 shows the results of a study.
Assume that all distributions are normal, the four population standard
deviations are approximately the same, and the data were collected
independently and randomly. Use a level of significance of 0.05.

77. A grassroots group opposed to a proposed increase in the gas tax
claimed that the increase would hurt working-class people the most, since
they commute the farthest to work. Suppose that the group randomly
surveyed 24 individuals and asked them their daily one-way commuting
mileage.
The results are as follows:
Determine whether or not the variance in mileage driven is statistically the
same among the working class and professional (middle income) groups.
Use a 5% significance level.
