Question:

17. Blood Pressure Levels When 14 different second-year medical students at Bellevue Hospital measured the systolic blood pressure of the same person, they obtained the results listed below (in mmHg). Assuming that the population standard deviation is known to be 10 mmHg, use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean blood pressure level is less than 140 mmHg. Hypertension is defined to be a blood pressure level that is too high because it is 140 mmHg or greater. Based on the hypothesis test results, can it be safely concluded that the person does not have hypertension?
