Question:

Student researchers Haley, Jeff, and Nathan saw an article on the Internet claiming that the average vertical jump for teens was 15 inches. They wondered if the average vertical jump of students at their school differed from 15 inches, so they obtained a list of student names and selected a random sample of 20 students. After contacting these students several times, they finally convinced them to allow their vertical jumps to be measured. Here are the data (in inches):

11.0 11.5 12.5 26.5 15.0 12.5 22.0 15.0 13.5 12.0 23.0 19.0 15.5 21.0 12.5 23.0 20.0 8.5 25.5 20.5


Do these data provide convincing evidence at the α = 0.10 level that the average vertical jump of students at this school differs from 15 inches?
