A guitar supply company must maintain strict oversight on the number of picks they package for sale to customers. Their current advertisement specifies between 900 and 1000 picks in every bag. An SRS of 16 1-pound bags of picks were collected as part of a Six-Sigma Quality Improvement effort within the company. The number of picks in each bag are shown as follows. Use ?=0.0508999999999999α=0.0508999999999999 for all calculations below.
935,971,882,916,962,920,945,910,885,965,930,949,935,952,890,927935,971,882,916,962,920,945,910,885,965,930,949,935,952,890,927
Do the data suggest that the standard deviation in number of picks
per 1-pound bag differs from 24.8?

(b) Construct a 94.9194.91% confidence interval estimate of the
standard deviation of number of picks per 1-pound bag. Give answers
to the nearest tenth.
