13. It is known that the average electric power consumption in acertain province is 721 Kwh.

A technology company in the region believes that its employeesconsume more than the provincial average. Collect information onthe consumption of 15 randomly chosen employees, and obtain thefollowing data:

710 774 814 768 823
732 675 755 770 660
654 757 736 677 797
