He surveys 100 Massachusetts residents and asks them about their annual expenditures on the lottery. (You may find it useful to reference the t table.)

Click here for the Excel Data File (The Lottery data below is from the excel file)

a. Specify the competing hypotheses to test the researcher’s claim.

multiple choice 1

H₀: μ = 861.75; H_A: μ ≠ 861.75
H₀: μ ≥ 861.75; H_A: μ < 861.75
H₀: μ ≤ 861.75; H_A: μ > 861.75

b-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round final answer to 3 decimal places.)
