An athletic shoe maker wants to test if their new running shoe specially made for sprinting is better than the competition. To do this, they recruit 35 NCAA sprinters and time their 100 meter dash wearing the company's shoe and then time their 100 meter dash again wearing the competitor's shoe. The difference of these times is then calculated as Timecompany.shoe – Timecompetitor.shoe. The sample mean difference in times is 0.53 seconds and the sample standard deviation is 1.1. Conduct a hypothesis test at the a = 0.1 level.
