Archaeology: Chaco Canyon The following problem is based on information from Archaeological Surveys of Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, by A. Hayes, D. Brugge, and W. Judge, University of New Mexico Press. A transect is an archaeological study area that is 1/5 mile wide and 1 mile long. A site in a transect is the location of a significant archaeological find. Let x represent the number of sites per transect. In a section of Chaco Canyon, a large number of transects showed that x has a population variance s2 42.3. In a different section of Chaco Canyon, a random sample of 23 transects gave a sample variance s 2 46.1 for the number of sites per transect. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance in the new section is greater than 42.3. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population variance.
