Question
The management of a taxi cab company is trying to decide if they should switch from bias tires to radial tires to improve fuel economy. Each of 10 taxis was equipped with one of the two tire types and driven on a test course. Without changing drivers, tires were then switched to the other tire type and the test course was repeated. The fuel economy (in mi/gal) for the 10 cars is as follows: Car Radial Bias 1 29.7 27.1 2 36.6 31.5 3 32.1 30.4 428.9 26.9 530.629.9 28.7 7 32.5 30.2 834.431.8 9 34.333.6 10 32.9 29.9 6 29Explanation / Answer
Below is Result from Excel :-
p-value = P(T> 2.01844) = 0.029349347
