1 Gina receives a large number of packages from two companies, \(A\) and \(B\). She believes that the variance of the weights of packages from company \(A\) is greater than the variance of the weights of packages from company \(B\). Gina takes a random sample of 7 packages from company \(A\) and an independent random sample of 10 packages from company \(B\). Her results are summarised below $$\bar { a } = 300 \quad \mathrm {~S} _ { a a } = 145496 \quad \bar { b } = 233.4 \quad \mathrm {~S} _ { b b } = 56364.4$$ [You may assume that the weights of packages from the two companies are normally distributed.]
Test Gina's belief. Use a \(5 \%\) level of significance and state your hypotheses clearly.
