Question
When
14
different​ second-year medical students measured the systolic blood pressure of the same​ person, they obtained the results listed below​ (in mmHg). Assuming that the population standard deviation is known to be
10
​mmHg, use a
0.05
significance level to test the claim that the mean blood pressure level is less than
140
mmHg. Hypertension is defined to be a blood pressure level that is too high because it is
140
mmHg or greater. Assume the blood pressure levels are normally distributed. Based on the hypothesis test​ results, can it be safely concluded that the person does not have​ hypertension?
