A potato chip manufacturer produces bags of potato chips that are supposed to have a net weight of 326 grams. Because the chips vary in size, it is difficult to fill the bags to the exact weight desired. However, the bags pass inspection so long as the standard deviation of their weights is no more than 3 grams. A quality control inspector wished to test the claim that one batch of bags has a standard deviation of more than 3 grams, and thus does not pass inspection. If a sample of 21 bags of potato chips is taken and the standard deviation is found to be 4.1 grams, does this evidence, at the 0.025 level of significance, support the claim that the bags should fail inspection
