One sample has ss=36 and a second sample has ss=24. A) if n= 5 for both samples, find each of the sample variances and compute the pooled variances. Because the samples are now the same size, you shoukd find that the pooled variances is exactly halfway between the two sample variances.
B) Now assume that n=5 for the first sample and n=13 for the first sample and n=13 for a second. Again, calculate, the two sample variances and the pooled variances. You should find that the pooled variance is closer to the variance for the larger sample
