It currently takes users a mean of 2626 minutes to install the most popular computer program made by RodeTech, a software design company. After changes have been made to the program, the company executives want to know if the new mean is now different from 2626 minutes so that they can change their advertising accordingly. A simple random sample of 5151 new customers are asked to time how long it takes for them to install the software. The sample mean is 24.924.9 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.72.7 minutes. Perform a hypothesis test at the 0.0250.025 level of significance to see if the mean installation time has changed. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.
