2. Apple's Mac computer batteries last for 7 hours on a single charge with a standard deviation of 20 minutes. A new supplier offers them a battery that they say will have increased battery life. A random sampling of twelve of the new batteries are tested and found to have a sample mean of 7 hours and 22 minutes and a sample standard deviation of 34 minutes. Does this new battery match the company's claim (to 95% confidence)? Perform a hypothesis test, showing all steps.
