(a) If x = 18.4 and s = 4.4, compute the test statistic.
t=
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
(b) Draw a t-distribution with the area that represents the P-value shaded. Which of the following graphs shows the correct shaded region?
O A.
Ов.
(c) Approximate the P-value. Choose the correct range for the P-value below.
O A. 0.15 <P-value < 0.20
O B. 0.10 <P-value < 0.15
O C. 0.05 <P-value < 0.10
O D. 0.20 <P-value < 0.25
(d) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the a = 0.05 level of significance, will the researcher reject the null hypothesis?
O A. The researcher will reject the null hypothesis since the P-value is not less than a.
B. The researcher will reject the null hypothesis since the P-value is less than a.
O C. The researcher will not reject the null hypothesis since the P-value is not less than a.
D. The researcher will not reject the null hypothesis since the P-value is less than a.
