What is the age of the target market for Raleigh bikes in the UK? One theory is that in counties where mountain bikes are more popular, the mean age of their customers is older than in counties where relatively little mountain biking is done. In an attempt to test this theory, a random sample of Cumbrian customers is taken along with a random sample of customers in Essex. The ages for these customers are given here. The customer is defined as ‘the person for whom the bike is primarily purchased’. The shape of the population distribution of bicycle customer ages is unknown. Analyse the data and discuss the implications for Raleigh manufacturing and sales.
