A sample of 20 third-grade students had a average of 54 on a math proficiency test, with a sample standard deviation of 11. Is there enough evidence to conclude that the third-grade sample mean differs significantly from the third-grade population mean of 67?
 
Assume a 0.02 significance level. 

Use the Critical Value Method of Testing (this means NO P-Values!). 


 will need to have -
1.  The null hypothesis, Ho 
2.  The alternative hypothesis, H1 
3.  The test statistic
4.  The type of test(left, right, two-tailed) and the p-value 
5.  The decision to accept Ho or reject Ho
