I. A recycled paper distributor places empty containers in several places; these are gradually filled with old newspapers and similar materials brought by several individuals. The containers are collected (and replaced with other empty ones) following different itineraries. In one of these routes the collection is done every two weeks. This plan is advisable if the average amount of recycled paper in each two-week period is greater than 1600 cubic feet. Different records corresponding to 18 periods of two weeks show the following volumes (in cubic feet) for a particular place:

1660 1820 1590 1440 1730 1680 1750 1720

1570 1700 1900 1800 1770 2010 1580 1620

and

1900

1690

Assume that these figures represent the results of a random sample. Do you support the alternative hypothesis, using α = 0.10? Write all parts of the hypothesis testing procedure.
