The records of a casualty insurance company show that, in the past, its clients have had a mean of  1.9 auto accidents per day with a standard deviation of 0.04 . The actuaries of the company claim that the standard deviation of the number of accidents per day is no longer equal to 0.04. Suppose that we want to carry out a hypothesis test to see if there is support for the actuaries' claim. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test. H0 :  __? H1 : __?
