Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Number of math tests n=15

standard deviation 1 [tex]\sigma _1=38.2[/tex]

standard deviation 1 [tex]\sigma _2=22.5[/tex]

Generally given the two tailed test the null hypothesis is given as

[tex]H_0=\sigma_1 =\sigma_2[/tex]

Generally given the two tailed test the null hypothesis is given as

[tex]H_a=\sigma_1 >\sigma_2[/tex]
