8. Random Generation of Data The TI-83 84 Plus calculator can be used to generate random data from a normally distributed population. The command randNorm(100,15,50)

generates 50 values from a normally distributed population with m 5 100 and s 5 15.

One such generated sample of 50 values has a mean of 98.4 and a standard deviation of 16.3. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the sample actually does come from a population with a mean equal to 100. Assume that s is known to be 15. Based on the results, does it appear that the calculator’s random number generator is working correctly?
