Question
Before changes to its management staff, an automobile assembly line operation had a scheduled mean completion time of 14.2 minutes.
The standard deviation of completion times was 1.6 minutes. An analyst at the company suspects that, under new management, the
mean completion time, µ, is now less than 14.2 minutes. To test this claim, a random sample of 12 completion times under new
management was taken by the analyst. The sample had a mean of 13 minutes. Assume that the population is normally distributed. Can
we support, at the 0.01 level of significance, the claim that the population mean completion time under new management is less than
14.2 minutes? Assume that the population standard deviation of completion times has not changed under new management.
Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.
Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places, and round your responses as specified below. (If necessary,
consult a list of formulas.)
