A travel agency is interested in comparing the travel experiences of customers travelling on two airlines: Airline A and Airline B. They do not know the exact route taken by each airline. The travel agency would like to know if there is a difference in the population mean travel time on a direct flight from Saskatoon to Toronto, depending on the airline a traveler chooses to fly. They recruit 10 employees who are asked to fly direct from Saskatoon to Toronto on Airline A. Each employee is asked to record the amount of time spent in the air. The times recorded by the employees are provided below (in hours). The population mean time for Airline B to fly from Saskatoon to Toronto is 3.4 hours. Conduct an appropriate hypothesis test using the critical value method.   Employee 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Time 3.25 3.75 2.50 3.75 2.75 4.5 4.25 4.5 3.75 3.25
