A car company says that the mean gas mileage for its luxury sedan is at least 23 miles per gallon (mpg). You believe the claim is incorrect and find that a random sample of
7 cars has a mean gas mileage of 21 mpg and a standard deviation of 5 mpg. At a = 0.025, test the company's claim. Assume the population is normally distributed.
