My problem is as follows and is presented in attached Excel file.I tried to cut and past in this descripton box, but all symbols did not transfer, so please refer to the attachment.

The following hypotheses are given:
H0: 12 ≤ 22
H1: 12 > 22
A random sample of 5 observations from the first population resulted in a standard deviation of 12. A random sample of 7 observations from the second population showed a standard deviation of 7. At the 0.01 significance level, is there more variation in the first population?
