Question: Paying high prices? A retailer entered into an exclusive agreement with a supplier who guaranteed to provide all products at competitive prices. The retailer eventually began to purchase supplies from other vendors who offered better prices. The original supplier filed a lawsuit claiming violation of the agreement. In defense, the retailer had an audit performed on a random sample of 25 invoices. For each audited invoice, all purchases made from other suppliers were examined and compared with those offered by the original supplier. The percent of purchases on each invoice for which an alternative supplier offered a lower price than the original supplier was recorded. For example, a data value of 38 means that the price would be lower with a different supplier for 38% of the items on the invoice. A histogram and some computer output for these data are shown below. Explain why we should not carry out a one-sample t test in this setting
