Question

Assume the population is normally distributed.

Claim: μ >71 α=0.10

Sample statistics:

x overbarx=71.5 s=3.33. n=23

What is the value of the standardized teststatistic?
What is theP-value of the test statistic?

Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.

a.Reject H0. There is enough evidence to support the claim.

b.Reject H0. There is not enough evidence to support the claim.

c.Fail to reject H0. There is enough evidence to support the claim.

d.Fail to reject H0. There is not enough evidence to support the claim.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
