Test the Indicated Claim About the Variances or Standard Deviations

Test the indicated claim about the variances or standard deviations of two populations. Assume that both samples are independent simple random samples from populations having normal distributions. A random sample of 16 women resulted in blood pressure levels with a standard deviation of 23 mm Hg. A random sample of 17 men resulted in blood pressure levels with a standard deviation of 19.2 mm Hg. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that blood pressure levels for women vary more than blood pressure levels for men. Include your null and alternative hypotheses, the test statistic, P-value or critical value(s), conclusion about the null hypothesis, and conclusion about the claim in your answer.
