De student heeft deze vraag correct beantwoord en correcte berekening gemaakt. De sample variance is groter dan de critical value. We kunnen dus concluderen dat de oplossing niet significant is.

Deze vraag heb ik inderdaad correct beantwoord. We kunnen besluiten dat de reductie in variantie niet te wijten aan het toeval bij een type 1-fout van 5%.
