Q1) A public bus company official claims that mean waiting time for bus number 14 during peak hours is less than 10 minutes.  Karen took bus number 14 in peak hours on 18 different occasions.  Her mean waiting time was 7.2 minutes with standard deviation of 1.6 minutes.  At 0.01 significance level, test claim that the mean is less than 10 minutes. You may suppose that time spent waiting for bus 14 is normally distributed.
