A consumer agency is investigating the blowout pressures of Soap Stone tires. A Soap Stone tire is said to blow out when it separates from the wheel rim due to impact forces usually caused by hitting a rock or a pothole in the road. A random sample of 29 Soap Stone tires were inflated to the recommended pressure, and then forces measured in foot-pounds were applied to each tire (1 foot-pound is the force of 1 pound dropped from a height of 1 foot). The customer complaint is that some Soap Stone tires blow out under small-impact forces, while other tires seem to be well made and don't have this fault. For the 29 test tires, the sample standard deviation of blowout forces was 1358 foot-pounds. (a) Soap Stone claims its tires will blow out at an average pressure of 26,000 foot-pounds, with a standard deviation of 1020 foot-pounds. The average blowout force is not in question, but the variability of blowout forces is in question. Using a 0.1 level of significance, test the claim that the variance of blowout pressures is more than Soap Stone claims it is.
Classify the problem as being a Chi-square test of independence or homogeneity, Chi-square goodness-of-fit, Chi-square for testing or estimating σ2 or σ, F test for two variances, One-way ANOVA, or Two-way ANOVA, then perform the following.
(ii) Find the sample test statistic. (Use two decimal places.)
(iii) Find the P-value of the sample test statistic. (Use four decimal places.)
(b) Find a 99% confidence interval for the variance of blowout pressures, using the information from the random sample. (Use one decimal place.)
