Question
A random sample of
89
eighth grade​ students' scores on a national mathematics assessment test has a mean score of
289
This test result prompts a state school administrator to declare that the mean score for the​ state's eighth graders on this exam is more than
285
Assume that the population standard deviation is
35.
At
α=0.04
is there enough evidence to support the​ administrator's claim? Complete parts​ (a) through​ (e).
 
​(a) Write the claim mathematically and identify
Upper H0
and
Upper Ha
(b) Find the standardized test statistic​ z, and its corresponding area.
 
Z=
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​(c) Find the​ P-value.
 
​P-value=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
​(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
 
A) Fail to reject
Upper H0
 
B) mReject
Upper H0
 
​(e) Interpret your decision in the context of the original claim.
 
At the
4​%
significance​ level, there
is/is not
 
enough evidence to
support/reject
 
the​ administrator's claim that the mean score for the​ state's eighth graders on the exam is more than
285
