At alpha = 0.05, is there enough evidence to support the restaurant's claim? Assume the population is normally distributed. Below is the minitab output. Test and CI for One Variance Method:

Null hypothesis Sigma = 2.9 Alternative hypothesis Sigma < 2.9

Test

Method: Chi-Square, Statistic: 11.54, DF: 22, P-Value: 0.034
