An incubation period is a time between when you contract a virus and when your symptoms start. Assume that the population of incubation periods for a novel coronavirus has population standard deviation of 2.4 days. By surveying randomly selected local hospitals, a researcher was able to obtain a sample of incubation periods of 40 patients with the average and the standard deviation of the data respectively 8.3 days and 2.91 days. At 10% significance level, test the claim that the average incubation period of the novel coronavirus is different from 6 days.
