题目
The amount of time, in minutes, spent by a customer on one visit to a certain shop is modelled by the random variable . In the past, the values of and were and respectively. The shop has recently moved to a new location, and the manager hopes that the new value of will be greater than . He takes a random sample of customers and notes the time they each spend in the shop. He then calculates the sample mean for these times.
Using a hypothesis test at the significance level, the manager finds that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the new value of is greater than .
Stating a necessary assumption, find the smallest possible value of .

店长在 的显著性水平下进行假设检验,发现有充分证据得出新的 值大于 的结论。
写出一个必要的假设,并求 的最小可能值。
原卷通用作答要求
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
请回答所有题目。适当时应使用计算器。必须清楚展示所有必要的计算过程;仅给出计算器答案而没有过程,不予评分。除非题目另有精度要求,非精确数值答案保留 3 位有效数字,以度为单位的角度保留 1 位小数。

Assume that the population standard deviation is unchanged at minutes. Test against .
Under ,
At the lower boundary of the upper-tail critical region,
Thus the smallest sample mean at the critical boundary is to significant figures; values above the unrounded boundary lead to rejection.
