A manufacturer wants to increase the shelf life of a line of cake mixes. Past records indicate that the average shelf life of the mix is 231 days. After a revised mix has been developed, a sample of nine boxes of cake mix gave these shelf lives (in days): 230,233, 235, 236, 233, 240, 240, 241, and 237. Using α = 0.025, has the shelf life of the cake mix increased?   Multiple Choice   Yes, because computed t is greater than the critical value.   Yes, because computed t is less than the critical value.   No, because computed t lies in the region of acceptance.   No, because 236.11 is quite close to 231.
