For the samples summarized below, test the hypothesis at that the two variances are equal.
A)Fail to reject the hypothesis because the test value 3.00 is less than the critical value 3.01.
B)Reject the hypothesis because the test value 3.00 is less than the critical value 3.01.
C)Fail to reject the hypothesis because the test value 9.00 is greater than the critical value 2.88.
D)Reject the hypothesis because the test value 9.00 is greater than the critical value 2.88.

The critical value for the test of equal variances for a sample size of 10 and 10 degrees of freedom is 3.01 at the 0.05 significance level. The test value of 3.00 is less than the critical value, meaning we fail to reject the hypothesis that the two variances are equal.
