Experian Marketing Services reported that the typical American spends 2.4 hours (144 minutes) per day accessing the Internet via a mobile device. You wonder if males and females spend differing amounts of time per day accessing the Internet through a mobile device. You select a sample of 60 friends and family (30 males and 30 females), collect times spent per day accessing the Internet through a mobile device (in minutes), and store the data collected in InternetMobileTime2.

b. In addition to equal variances, what other assumption is necessary in (a)?
