A local convenience store in a large city closes each day at 10 P.M. The owner of the store is investigating whether mean sales will increase by at least $10 per day if the store remains open until 11 P.M. The owner asked the 41 members of a local civic group to estimate the amount of money they might spend during the extra hour. The sample mean was $11.50. The owner will conduct a one-sample tt-test for a population mean. Have the conditions for inference been met?     Yes, all conditions have been met. A No, the sample was not chosen using a random method. B No, the sample size is greater than 10 percent of the population. C No, the sample size is not large enough to assume normality of the sampling distribution. D No, the distribution of the sample is not normal. E
