Conduct a hypothesis test showing all of your steps. A community center claims that the chlorine level in its pool has a standard deviation of 0.48 parts per million (ppm). Samples were taken 27 times over the past month that yielded a standard deviation of 0.61ppm. Test the center’s claim with a 5% level of significance. a) State the hypotheses and label the claim. b) Is it left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed? c) What are the critical values? Draw a picture. d) What is the test-statistic?
