to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 400 gram setting. Based on a 21 bag sample where the mean is 392 grams and the variance is 169, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.025 level that the bags are underfilled? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 4 of 5 :  Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.
