Medical research has shown that repeated wrist extension beyond 20 degrees increases the risk of wrist and hand injuries. Each of 24 students at a university used a proposed new computer mouse design. While using the mouse, each student's wrist extension was recorded. Data consistent with summary values given in a paper are given. Use these data to test the hypothesis that the mean wrist extension for people using this new mouse design is greater than 20 degrees. (Use
α = 0.05.
Use a statistical computer package to calculate the P-value. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)

1. State your conclusion.
Reject H0. We have convincing evidence that the mean wrist extension for all people using the new mouse design is greater than 20 degrees.
2. Are any assumptions required in order for it to be appropriate to generalize the results of your test to the population of students from this university?
We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all students at the university.
3. Are any assumptions required in order for it to be appropriate to generalize the results of your test to the population of all university students?
1. We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all students who use a wireless mouse.
2. We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all students at the university.
3.. We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all students who own PCs.
4. We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all university students.
5.We need to assume that the 24 students used in the study are representative of all students in computer science classes
