A manufacturer of diamond drill bits for industrial production drilling and machining wishes to investigate the length of time a drill bit will last while drilling carbon steel. The production of the drill bits is very expensive, thus the number available for testing is small. A sample of 8 drill bits had a mean drilling time of 2.25 hours with a standard deviation of 0.5 hours. Is it reasonable for the manufacturer to claim that the drill bits will last 2.5 hours?
