An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 5.9 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 24 engines and the mean pressure was 6.2 pounds/square inch with a standard deviation of 0.7. A level of significance of 0.01 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis.
