a. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean time taken by each individual to
complete the (i) first attempt and (ii) second attempt. [la]
b. Test the hypothesis that the difference between the two mean times for both is 100
seconds. Use the 5% level of significance.
c. Subsequently, it was learnt that the times for the second attempt were incorrecly
recorded and that each of the values is 50 seconds too large. What, if any, difference
does this make to the results of the test done in part (b)? Show all steps for the
hypothesis test

Question 1
A tech company has acknowledged the importance of having records of all meetings conducted.
The meetings are very fast paced and requires equipment that is able to capture the information in
the shortest possible time. There are two options, using a typewriter or a word processor. Fifteen
administrative assistants are selected and the amount of typing time in hours was recorded. The
results are given below:

a. Test the hypothesis that the mean typing time in hours for typewriters is less than 7.0.
Use the 1% level of significance.
b. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean typing time in hours,
where a difference is equal to the typing time in hours of word processors minus typing
time in hours of typewriter.
c. Using the 5% significance level, determine whether there is…
