Refer to the data set in the accompanying table. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a significance level of 0.10 to test for a difference between the weights of discarded paper (in pounds) and weights of discarded plastic (in pounds).
