A machine that puts corn flakes into boxes is adjusted to put an
average of 15 ounces into each box, with standard deviation of 0.24
ounce. If a random sample of 13 boxes gave a sample standard
deviation of 0.36 ounce, do these data support the claim that the
variance has increased and the machine needs to be brought back
into adjustment? Use a 0.01 level of significance. Assume volume in
boxes is normally distributed.
Classify the problem as one of the following: Chi-square test of
independence or homogeneity, Chi-square goodness of fit, Chi-square
for testing σ2 or σ.
Chi-square goodness of fitChi-square for testing σ2 or σ Chi-square test of homogeneityChi-square test of independence
(i) Give the value of the level of significance.

manufacturing process showed the sample variance of diameters to be

new manufacturing process showed the sample variance of their
diameters to be s2 = 0.121. Use a 5% level of significance to test
