Math Problem Statement
Suppose a local manufacturing company claims their production line has a variance of at most 9. A quality control engineer decides to test this claim by sampling 23 parts. She finds that the standard deviation of the sample is 3.75.
Is this enough evidence at the 2.5% level of significance, to continue assuming the manufacturing companies claim is valid?Determine the p-value (round to 4 decimal places as needed)
