A random sample of 35 observations was selected from a normally distributed population. the sample mean was x-bar=51, and the sample variance was s^2=16.0. does the sample show sufficient reason to conclude that the population standard deviation is not equal to 3 at the 0.05 level of significance? use the p-value method.
