Question
A company claims that the mean monthly residential electricity consumption in a certain region is more than 890
kilowatt-hours (kWh). You want to test this claim. You find that a random sample of 61 residential customers has a
mean monthly consumption of 920 kWh. Assume the population standard deviation is 127 kWh. At a = 0.01, can you
support the claim? Complete parts (a) through (e).
(a) Identify Ho and H₂. Choose the correct answer below.
OA. Ho: H=890 (claim)
H₂: *890
OC. Ho: >890 (claim)
Ha: μ≤ 890
OE. Ho: 920
Ha: #920 (claim)
OB. Ho: ≤920
Ha: >920 (claim)
O D. Ho: > 920 (claim)
Ha: μS920
At the 1% significance level, there
electricity consumption in a certain region
OF. Ho: s890
OA. The rejection region is z <2.33.
B. The rejection regions are z< -2.33 and z>2.33.
OC. The rejection region is z>2.33.
(c) Find the standardized test statistic. Use technology.
The standardized test statistic is z =.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
(b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer

OB. The critical value is.
Identify the rejection region(s). Select the correct choice below.

OB. Reject Ho because the standardized test statistic is not in the rejection region.
OC. Reject Ho because the standardized test statistic is in the rejection region.
OD. Fail to reject Ho because the standardized test statistic is in the rejection region.
