A new process for producing synthetic diamonds can be operated at a profitable level only if the average weight of synthetic diamonds is greater than 0.5 karat. To evaluate the profitability of the process, 38 synthetic diamonds are generated with a mean of 0.52 karat and a standard deviation of 0.0655 karat. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate that the average weight of synthetic diamonds produced by the new process is greater than 0.5 karat? Use α = 0
