A coin mint has a specification that a particular coin has a mean weight of
2.52.5
g. A sample of
3434
coins was collected. Those coins have a mean weight of
2.496162.49616
g and a standard deviation of
0.012370.01237
g. Use a
0.050.05
significance level to test the claim that this sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to
2.52.5
g.
