A well-designed and safe workplace can contribute greatly to raising productivity. It is especially significant that workers not be asked to perform tasks, such as lifting, that exceed their capabilities. The following data upon maximum weight of lift (MWOL, in kilograms) for a frequency of 4 lifts per minute were reported in a certain article:
25.8
36.6
26.3
21.8
27.2
Suppose that it is reasonable to regard the sample as a random sample from the population of healthy males, age 18-30. Do the data suggest that the population mean MWOL exceeds 25? Carry out a test of the relevant hypotheses using a .1 significance level.
You may need to use the appropriate table in Appendix A to answer this question.
