**Hypothesis Testing Example: Commuter Distance to Campus**

An administrator claims that for a particular school, commuters drive on average more than 14.1 miles to get to campus. You decide to test this claim with a random sample of 84 students having a mean of 14.5 miles and a standard deviation of 2.7 miles. Test the administrator's claim using a level of significance of \( \alpha = 0.05 \).

a. **Enter the null hypothesis for this test.**

\( H_0 \): [Select an answer]

b. **Enter the alternative hypothesis for this test.**

\( H_1 \): [Select an answer]

c. **Is the original claim located in the null or alternative hypothesis?**

[Select an answer]

d. **What is the test statistic for the given statistics?**

[Input Field]

e. **What is the \( p \)-value for this test?**

[Input Field]

f. **What is the decision based on the given statistics?**

[Select an answer]

g. **What is the correct interpretation of this decision?**

Using a [Input Field]% level of significance, there [Select an answer] sufficient evidence to [Select an answer] the claim that for a particular school, commuters drive on average more than 14.1 miles to get to campus.

Expert Solution
Step 1

It is given that 

Population mean, μ = 14.1

Sample mean, X̄ = 14.5

Sample standard deviation, s = 2.7

Sample size, n = 84

Significance level, α = 0.05

 

Note: According to Bartleby expert guidelines, we can answer only first question with their three subparts and rest can be reposted.
