Question

A pizza delivery chain advertises that it will deliver your pizza in 30 minutes from when the order is placed. Being a skeptic, you decide to test and see if the mean delivery time is actually more than 30 minutes. For the simple random sample of 10 customers who record the amount of time it takes for each of their pizzas to be delivered, the mean is 35.4 minutes with a standard deviation of 6.9 minutes. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Perform a hypothesis test using a 0.05 level of significance.

Step 2 of 3 :

Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the average of a given data set. The mean value is evaluated as the quotient of the sum of all observations by the sample size. The mean, in contrast to a median, is affected by extreme values. Very large or very small values can distract the mean from the center of the data. Arithmetic mean: The most common type of mean is the arithmetic mean. It is evaluated using the formula: μ = 1 N ∑ i = 1 N x i Other types of means are the geometric mean, logarithmic mean, and harmonic mean. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of n observations from a data set is defined as the geometric mean of the set: G = x 1 x 2 ... x n n Logarithmic mean: The difference of the natural logarithms of the two numbers, divided by the difference between the numbers is the logarithmic mean of the two numbers. The logarithmic mean is used particularly in heat transfer and mass transfer. ln x 2 − ln x 1 x 2 − x 1 Harmonic mean: The inverse of the arithmetic mean of the inverses of all the numbers in a data set is the harmonic mean of the data. 1 1 x 1 + 1 x 2 + ...
