You want to test the claim that, on average, it takes more than 6060 minutes for the caffeine in a cup of coffee to take effect on the body. So you take a random sample of 25 people and record the time, in minutes, that it takes for the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee to have a physiological effect on each person. Does the sample provide sufficient evidence to support your claim at the 0.01 level of significance? (You have good reason to believe that, for a substance like caffeine, the population standard deviation is approximately 6 minutes.)

  8. At the given significance level, the correct conclusion is:
    • At the 0.010.01 significance level, the sample data does not provide sufficient evidence to support the claim that on average, at the population level, it takes more than 6060 minutes for the caffeine in a cup of coffee to take effect on the body.
    • At the 0.010.01 significance level, the sample data provides sufficient evidence to support the claim that on average, at the population level, it takes more than 6060 minutes for the caffeine in a cup of coffee to take effect on the body.
