At a shooting range, instructors can determine if a shooter is consistently missing the target because of the gun sight or because of the shooter's ability. If a gun's sight is off, the variance of the distances between the shots and the center of the shot pattern will be small (even if the shots are not in the center of the target). A student claims that it is the sight that is off, not his aim, and wants the instructor to confirm his claim. If a skilled shooter fires a gun at a target multiple times, the distances between the shots and the center of the shot pattern, measured in centimeters (cm), will have a variance of less than 0.34. After the student shoots 25 shots at the target, the instructor calculates that the distances between his shots and the center of the shot pattern, measured in cm, have a variance of 0.26. Does this evidence support the student's claim that the gun's sight is off? Use a 0.10 level of significance. Assume that the distances between the shots and the center of the shot pattern are normally distributed. Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

An incoming freshman took her college's placement test in French and she scored 82 points. The overall results on the French test had a mean of 72 and a standard deviation of 8. Scores were normally distributed. Find the percentage of the students who scored higher than 82 points using your normal table. Write your answer without the % sign as a numerical value, for example write 52.7 for 52.7%.
