Use R to solve the following problem: A study was carried out to investigate the variation of rainbow trout weights in a certain creek. The weights (in kilograms) of 10 randomly selected fish are listed below: 0.78, 0.45, 0.35, 0.76, 0.57, 0.42, 0.33, 0.68, 0.66, 0.42
Assume that the population is approximately normally distributed. Test the hypothesis that the unknown population variance is less than 0.08 kg2 at alpha=0.05. Be sure to list (i) your hypotheses, (ii) test statistic, (iii) decision, and (iv) conclusion.
