A car manufacturer claims that the miles per gallon for a certain model has a mean equal to 40.5 miles with a standard deviation equal to 3.5 miles. use th following data, obtained from a random sample of 15 such cars, to test the hypothesis that the standard deviation differs from 3.5. use alpha=0.05. Assume normality.

37.0 38.0 42.5 45.0 34.0 32.0 36.0 35.5

38.0 42.5 40.0 42.5 35.0 30.0 37.5
