Question

A company claims that the mean monthly residential electricity consumption in a certain region is more than 890 ​kiloWatt-hours (kWh). You want to test this claim. You find that a random sample of 67 residential customers has a mean monthly consumption of 930 kWh. Assume the population standard deviation is 122 kWh. At α=0.01​,can you support the​ claim? Complete parts​ (a) through​ (e).

B)Find the critical​ value(s) and identify the rejection​ region(s). Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. Use technology.

 

 

(c) Find the standardized test statistic. Use technology.
The standardized test statistic is z-[
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
O A. Fail to reject H, because the standardized test statistic is in the rejection region.
O B. Reject H, because the standardized test statistic is in the rejection region.
OC. Fail to reject H, because the standardized test statistic is not in the rejection region.
O D. Reject H, because the standardized test statistic is not in the rejection region.
(e) Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
At the 5% significance level, there
enough evidence to
the claim that the mean monthly residential electricity consumption in a certain region
KWh.
