Mountain Climbing: Accidents The following problem is based on information taken from Accidents in North American Mountaineering (jointly published by The American Alpine Club and The Alpine Club of Canada). Let x represent the number of mountain climbers killed each year. The long-term variance of x is approximately s2 136.2. Suppose that for the past 8 years, the variance has been s 2 115.1. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the recent variance for number of mountain-climber deaths is less than 136.2. Find a 90% confidence interval for the population variance.
