Use a 0.025 significance level to test the claim that peanut candies have weight

Question

Use a 0.025 significance level to test the claim that peanut candies have weights that vary more than plain candies. The standard deviation for the weights of plain candies is 0.094. A sample of 91 peanut candies has weights with a standard deviation of 0.36. Assume the population is normally distributed. (a) Write the claim mathematically and identify H_0 and H_a. A. H_0: sigma = 0.094: H_a: sigma notequalto 0.094 (claim) B. H_0: sigma greaterthanorequalto 0.094 (claim): H_a: sigma 0.094 (claim)

Explanation / Answer

Option-C) H0 : < 0.094 : H1 : > 0.094 (claim)
