Faced with rising fax costs, a firm issued a guideline that transmissions of 7 pages or more should be sent by 2-day mail instead. exceptions are allowed, but they want the average to be 7 or below. the firm examined 24 randomly chosen fax transmissions during the next year, yielding a sample mean of 8.52 with a standard deviation of 3.81 pages. find the test statistics.

t = 1.9287

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be the average number of pages should be sent by 2-day mail instead.

As per given we have,

Sample mean :

Sample standard deviation : s=3.81

sample size : n= 24

Since , the sample size is less than 30 and populations standard deviation is unknown , so we use t-test.

The test statistic for population mean :-

Hence, the test statistics : t = 1.9287

3,000,540
