Question

Transcribed Image Text:A snack food manufacturer estimates that the variance of the number of grams of carbohydrates in servings of its tortilla chips is 1.23. A dietician is asked to test this
claim and finds that a random sample of 16 servings has a variance of 1.16. At a 0.01, is there enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim? Assume the
population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
H2: o21.23 (Claim)
Ha: o1.23
(b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s)
The critical value(s) is(are)
(Round to two decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
Choose the correct statement below and fill in the corresponding answer boxes.
OA. The rejection region is x2
and x2>
O B. The rejection regions are x <
O C. The rejection region is x

(c) Find the standardized test statistic x
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, and (e) interpret the decision in the context of the original claim. Fill in the correct answers below.

- A state-by-state survey found that the proportions of adults who are smokers in state A and state B were 22.9% and 19.3%, respectively. (Suppose the number of respondents from each state was 3000.) At a = 0.05, can you support the claim that the proportion of adults who are smokers is lower in state A than in state B? Assume the random samples are independent. Complete parts (a) through (e). (a) Identify the claim and state Ho and Ha. The claim is "the proportion of adults who are smokers in state A is the proportion of adults who are smokers in state B."
