27. For the hypotheses in Problem 19, the null hypothesis is not rejected.
19. Valve Pressure The standard deviation in the pressure required to open a certain valve is known to be σ = 0.7 psi. Due to changes in the manufacturing process, the quality-control manager feels that the pressure variability has been reduced.

The director of research and development is testing a new drug. She wants to know if there is evidence at the 0.025 level that the drug stays in the system for more than 370 minutes. For a sample of 7 patients, the average time the drug stayed in the system was 380 minutes with a standard deviation of 21. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal.
