According to a leasing firm's reports, the mean number of miles driven annually in its leased cars is 12,660 miles with a standard deviation of 1040 miles. The company recently starting using new contracts which require customers to have the cars serviced at their own expense. The company's owner believes the mean number of miles driven annually under the new contracts, u, is less than 12,660 miles. He takes a random sample of 70 cars under the new contracts. The cars in the sample had a mean of 12,635 annual miles driven. Is there support for the claim, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the population mean number of miles driven annually by cars under the new contracts, is less than 12,660 miles? Assume that the population standard deviation of miles driven annually was not affected by the change to the contracts. Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places, and round your responses as specified below. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H₁. H₂:0 H₁ :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) 0 (d) Find the p-value.

Transcribed Image Text:According to a leasing firm's reports, the mean number of miles driven annually in its leased cars is 12,660 miles with a
standard deviation of 1040 miles. The company recently starting using new contracts which require customers to have the
cars serviced at their own expense. The company's owner believes the mean number of miles driven annually under the
new contracts, μ, is less than 12,660 miles. He takes a random sample of 70 cars under the new contracts. The cars in
the sample had a mean of 12,635 annual miles driven. Is there support for the claim, at the 0.05 level of significance,
that the population mean number of miles driven annually by cars under the new contracts, is less than 12,660 miles?
Assume that the population standard deviation of miles driven annually was not affected by the change to the contracts.
Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.
Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places, and round your responses as specified below. (If
necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
(a) State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H₁.
Ho :O
