An independent consumer group published its finding that the lifetimes of electric bulbs manufactured by BIG Corporation are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 660 days and a variance of 15,625. BIG Corporation claims that the variance of its electric bulbs is less than 15,625. Suppose that we want to carry out a hypothesis test to see if BIG Corporation's claim is correct. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test. H0: H1:

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
