At Canon Food Corporation, it used to take an average of 90 minutes for new workers to learn a food processing job. Recently the company installed a new food processing machine. The supervisor at the company wants to find if the mean time taken by new workers to learn the food processing procedure on this new machine is shorter than 90 minutes. A sample of 20 workers showed that it took, on average, 85 minutes for them to learn the food processing procedure on the new machine. It is known that the learning times for all new workers are normally distributed with a population standard deviation ? of 7 minutes. Find the p-value for the test that the mean learning time for the food processing procedure on the new machine is shorter than 90 minutes. What will your conclusion be if alpha is 1%? (Hint: the p-value is the cumulative probability of your test statistic, ?(?̅))
