Ans:
Given that
Test statistic=1.33
critical values=+/-2.75
(so,we will reject null hypothesis,if test statistic<-2.75 or test statistic>2.75)
As,test statistic=1.33<2.75 i.e. test statistic does not fall in critical region,so we fail to reject null hypthesis.
So,Test results are non significant and we can conclude that rate of product returns after staffing change is not different from the rate of product returns before the change.
