Conclusions:

2 Data sets

Accept Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is no sufficient evidence

to prove that "Data" is not Normal
(with reservation).

Reject Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is sufficient evidence to

prove that "Data" is not Normal.

Accept Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is no sufficient evidence

to prove that the variance of "Data A" is not equal with
the variance of "Data B"
(with reservation).

Reject Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is sufficient evidence to

prove that the variance of "Data A" is not equal with the
variance of "Data B".

Accept Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is no sufficient evidence

to prove that the mean/median of "Data A" is not equal
with the mean/median of "Data B"
(with reservation).

Reject Ho

At 95% confidence level, there is sufficient evidence to

prove that the mean/median of "Data A" is not equal with
the mean/median of "Data B".
