An automotive manufacturer has developed a new type of tire that the research team believes to increase fuel efficiency. The manufacturer wants to test if there is an increase in the mean gas mileage of mid-sized sedans that use the new type of tire, compared to 32 miles per gallon, the historic mean gas mileage of mid-sized sedans not using the new tires.

The automotive manufacturer should perform a hypothesis test to .

One tailed

To conclude if there is an increase in the mean gas mileage due to new type of tire.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The manufacture wants to compare increase in the mean gas mileage.

Population mean = 32 miles per gallon

Thus, the manufacture could carry a hypothesis test to compare mean.

A one tailed test (z-test or t-test) based on the information can be used to compare the increase in mean.

Thus,

The automotive manufacturer should perform a one tailed hypothesis test to conclude if there is an increase in the mean gas mileage due to new type of tire.

i'm sure goog can you get that answer
