The Florida Energy Factor (FEF) is used to compare the efficiency of domestic solar hot water heaters and to determine certain building construction credits. Solar water heaters with a high FEF are more cost efficient. Assume normality for the FEF distribution.
A random sample of approved heaters was obtained, and the FEF value for each is given in the following:
3.3 3.2 1.8 2.1 4.2 3.9 4.6 6.3 1.9 1.9 4.9 6.7 5.2 3.1 1.4
Is there any evidence to suggest that the true population mean FEF is greater than 3.0? Use α = 0.05.
