4 The time interval, \(T\) minutes, between consecutive stoppages of a particular grinding machine is regularly measured. \(T\) is normally distributed with mean \(\mu\).
24 randomly chosen values of \(T\) are summarised by $$\sum _ { i = 1 } ^ { 24 } t _ { i } = 348.0 \text { and } \sum _ { i = 1 } ^ { 24 } t _ { i } ^ { 2 } = 5195.5 .$$

1. Calculate a symmetric \(95 \%\) confidence interval for \(\mu\).
2. For the machine to be working acceptably, \(\mu\) should be at least 15.0 . Using a test at the 10\% significance level, decide whether the machine is working acceptably.
