The mean water temperature downstream from a discharge pipe at a power plant cooling tower should be no more than 100°F. Past experience has indicated that the standard deviation of temperature is 2°F. The water temperature is measured on nine randomly chosen days, and the average temperature is found to be 98°F. Calculate the critical value and z-value of the sample mean. Is there evidence that the water temperature is acceptable at α = 0.05?
