ast year a company received 50 complaints concerning carpet installation. The data in the accompanying table represents the number of days between the receipt of a complaint and the resolution of the complaint. The supervisor claims that the mean number of days between the receipt of a complaint and the resolution of the complaint is 20 days. At the 0.10 level of significance, is there evidence that the claim is not true (that is, that the mean number of days is different from 20)?
