17 . In a pulse rate research , a simple random sample of 100 men results in a mean of 80 beats per minute , and a standard deviation of 11 beats per minute . Based on the sample results , the researcher concludes that the pulse rates of men have a standard deviation greater than 10 beats per minutes . Use a 0.05 significance level to test the researcher ’ s claim .
