Question: Listed below are weights (grams) from a simple random sample of wheat pennies (from Data Set 29 Coin Weights in Appendix B). U.S. Mint specifications

Listed below are weights (grams) from a simple random sample of "wheat" pennies (from Data Set 29 "Coin Weights" in Appendix B). U.S. Mint specifications now require a standard deviation of 0.0230 g for weights of pennies. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that wheat pennies are manufactured so that their weights have a standard deviation equal to 0.0230 g. Does the Mint specification appear to be met?

Repeat Exercise 16 using the weights of the 37 post-1983 pennies included in Data Set 29 "Coin Weights" in Appendix B.

Listed below are weights (grams) from a simple random sample

Test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, or critical value(s), then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population.
