Question 1206929: Question content area left
Part 1
Test the given claim. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population. Use either the​ P-value method or the traditional method of testing hypotheses.
Company A uses a new production method to manufacture aircraft altimeters. A simple random sample of new altimeters resulted in errors listed below. Use a 0.05 level of significance to test the claim that the new production method has errors with a standard deviation greater than 32.2​ ft, which was the standard deviation for the old production method. If it appears that the standard deviation is​ greater, does the new production method appear to be better or worse than the old​ method? Should the company take any​ action?
