An automotive expert claims that the large number of self-serve gasoline stations has resulted in poor automobile maintenance, and that the average tire pressure is more than 4 pounds per square inch (psi) below its manufacturer’s specification. As a quick test, 50 tires are examined, and the number of psi each tire is below specification is recorded. If we assume that tire pressure is normally distributed with σ = 1.5 psi, can we infer at the 10% significance level that the expert is correct? What is the p-value?
