Potential insurance fraud? Insurance adjusters are concerned about the high estimates they are receiving from Jocko’s Garage. To see if the estimates are unreasonably high, each of 10 damaged cars was taken to Jocko’s and to another garage and the estimates (in dollars) were recorded. Here are the results: Car 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jocko's 1410 1550 1250 1300 900 1520 1750 3600 2250 2840 Other 1250 1300 1250 1200 950 1575 1600 3380 2125 2600 Test the null hypothesis that there is no difference between the estimates of the two garages. Be sure to specify the null and alternative hypotheses, the test statistic with degrees of freedom, and the P-value. What do you conclude using the 0.05 significance level?
