The amount of time people engage in physical activity mat be related to health outcome. Those who
report that they spend more than 15 hours are put into one while those who spend less 10 were put
into another group. (Those who fall in between 10 and 15 were left out of the study); The reaearcher
then ask the participants to wear a monitor for one month. The average time in minutes is
recorded and shown below . Is there any evidence that on average people who watch less than 10 hours watching televsion
spend more time on physical activity.?. Test the hypotheses at (alpha=0.05) using the 5 step
