Solution
A single-tailed test or a one-tailed test is a statistical test in which the critical area of a distribution is one-sided
So that it is either greater than or less than a certain value, but not both.
For the null hypothesis H0: µ = 16.91
The alternative hypothesis H1: µ > 16.91 or H1: µ < 16.91 are one-tailed tests.
