Question

A data set about speed dating includes​ "like" ratings of male dates made by the female dates. The summary statistics are

nequals=192192​,
x overbarxequals=6.526.52​,
sequals=1.911.91.

Use a

0.050.05

significance level to test the claim that the population mean of such ratings is less than

7.007.00.

Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
