Let μ\mu be the population mean fuel efficiency score that would occur if every car's air filter were replaced. The air filter change is deemed effective if μ>25.6mpg\mu > 25.6 \mathrm { mpg }
A test is made of H0:μ=25.6 versus H1:μ>25.6H _ { 0 } : \mu = 25.6 \text { versus } H _ { 1 } : \mu > 25.6
