17. The director of research and development is testing a new medicine. She wants to know if there is evidence at the 0.01 level that the medicine relieves pain in more than 336 seconds. For a sample of 86 patients, the mean time in which the medicine relieved pain was 342 seconds. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 23. State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
