Question

You are the manager of a restaurant for a fast-food franchise. Last month, the mean waiting time at the drive-through window for branches in your geographical region, as measured from the time a customer places an order until the time the customer receives the order, was 3.7 minutes. You select a random sample of 64 orders. The sample mean waiting time is 3.96 minutes, with a sample standard deviation of 0.8 minute. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the population mean waiting time is different from 3.7 minutes?

State the null and alternative hypotheses. Upper H 0 : mu equals 3.7Upper H 1 : mu not equals 3.7 (Type integers or decimals.)

Determine the test statistic. The test statistic is 2.6 . (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Find the p-value. p-valueequals nothing (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

One sample T summary hypothesis test:
: Mean of population
H0 : = 3.7
HA : 3.7

Hypothesis test results:

Hence,

p - value = 0.012
