7 A large number of athletes are taking part in a competition. The masses, in kg , of a random sample of 7 athletes are as follows. $$\begin{array} { l l l l l l l } 98.1 & 105.0 & 92.2 & 89.8 & 99.9 & 95.4 & 101.2 \end{array}$$ Assuming that masses are normally distributed, test, at the \(10 \%\) significance level, whether the mean mass of athletes in this competition is equal to 94 kg .
