These three examples should be enough to understand the operation of the

Inferences concerning one variance
The null hypothesis to be tested is , H

:
σ

=
σ
o

, at a level of confidence (1-
α)100%, or significance level α, using a sample of size n, and variance s

.  The 
test statistic to be used is a chi-squared test statistic defined as
Depending on the alternative hypothesis chosen, the P-value is calculated as 
follows:
Θ H

P-value = P(

⋅min[1-UTPC(ν,χ

where the function min[x,y] produces the minimum value of x or y (similarly, 
max[x,y] produces the maximum value of x or y). UTPC(
ν,x) represents the 
calculator’s upper-tail probabilities for 
ν = n - 1 degrees of freedom.
