Question:

One of the measurements used to determine the health of a person’s lungs is the amount of air a person can exhale under force in one second. This is called the forced expiratory volume in one second, and is abbreviated FEV1. Assume the mean FEV1 for 10-year-old boys is 2.1 liters and that the population standard deviation is σ = 0.3. A random sample of 100 10-year-old boys who live in a community with high levels of ozone pollution are found to have a sample mean FEV1 of 1.95 liters. Can you conclude that the mean FEV1 in the high-pollution community is less than 2.1 liters? Use the

α = 0.05 level of significance.
