Prove that the new process has smaller variance

Reference no: EM13145508

A manufacturing process drills holes in sheet metal that are supposed to be .5000 cm in diameter. Before and after a new drill press is installed, the hole diameter is carefully measured (in cm) for 12 randomly chosen parts. At α = .05, do these independent random samples prove that the new process has smaller variance? Show the hypotheses, decision rule, and test statistic.
