CAPE Applied Mathematics Unit 1 · 2021 · Paper 2 · Question 6(c)(ii)

A random sample from a normal population with mean mu and standard deviation sigma yielded: 16.0, 14.2, 14.4, 14.3, 14.6.

Determine the critical region for a test of H0: mu = 14.0 against H1: mu != 14.0 at the 5% significance level.
