6. Many people believe that the average number of Facebook friends is 140. The population standard deviation is 35.1. A random sample of 45 people in a particular city zone revealed that the average number of Facebook friends was 137. At 0.10 level of significance, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of friends is less than 140? State the hypotheses (only the null and alternate hypotheses). [2 marks]
