The records of a casualty insurance company show that, in the past, its clients have had a mean of 1.7 auto accidents per day with a variance of 0.0036 . The actuaries of the company claim that the variance of the number of accidents per day is no longer equal to 0.0036 . Suppose that we want to carry out a hypothesis test to see if there is support for the actuaries' claim. State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that we would use for this test. Ho: 0 H1: 0
