The results are given below: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 typewriter 8.0 6.5 5.0 6.7 7.8 8.5 7.2 5.7 9.2 5.7 6.5 word processor 7.2 5.7 8.3 7.5 9.2 7.2 6.5 7.0 6.9 34 7.0 6.9 8.8 6.7 8.8 9.4 8.6 5.5 7.2 8.4 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…arrow_forward
