Chapter 14.2, Problem 3Q

Below are n = 50 computer-generated observations that are presumably a random sample from the exponential pdf, f Y ( y ) = e y , y 0. Use Theorem 14.2.1 to test whether the difference between the sample median for these y i ' s ( = 0.604 ) and the true median of f Y ( y ) is statistically significant. Let a = 0.05.
