recovery time for a particular operation. Until now the mean recovery time has been 21.7 hours. The next

recovery time for these patients is found to be 20.3 hours with a standard deviation of 3.47 hours. Do the
data support the pharmaceutical company's claim? Test the appropriate hypothesis at a =
0.10.
(a). The null and alternative hypotheses are
