A college professor suspects that students at his school are getting less than 8 hours of sleep a night, on average. To test his belief, the professor asks a random sample of 28 students, "How much sleep did you get last night?" Here are the data (in hours): 96 8 6 8 8 6 6.5 6 7 9 4 3 4 5 6 11 6 3 6 6 10 7 8 4.5 9 7 7 Do these data provide convincing evidence at the a = 0.05 significance level in support of the professor's suspicion?
