8.4.12-T Assigned Media A simple random sample of 28 filtered 100-mm cigarettes is obtained from a normally distributed population, and the tar content of each cigarette is measured. The sample has a standard deviation of 0.20 mg. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the tar content of filtered 100-mm cigarettes has a standard deviation different from 0.30 mg, which is the standard deviation for unfiltered king-size cigarettes. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? O A. Ho: a# 0.30 mg O B. Ho: a= 0.30 mg H1 : a= 0.30 mg H1: a 0.30 mg D. H.: a= 0.30 mg H1: 0 5 0.30 mg Hit a # 0.30 mg b. Find the test statistic. x2 =(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
