An individual’s present route to work results in, on average, 40 minutes of travel time per trip. An alternate route has been suggested by a friend, who claims that it will reduce the travel time. Suppose that the new route was tried on 10 randomly chosen occasions with the following times resulting: 44, 38.5, 37.5, 39, 38.2, 36, 42, 36.5, 36, 34 Do these data establish the claim that the new route is shorter, at the (a) 1 percent (b) 5 percent (c) 10 percent level of significance?
