A. The value of the standardized test statistic:
Note: For the next part, your answer should use interval notation. An answer of the form (−∞,a)(−∞,a) is expressed (-infty, a), an answer of the form (b,∞)(b,∞) is expressed (b, infty), and an answer of the form (−∞,a)∪(b,∞)(−∞,a)∪(b,∞) is expressed (-infty, a)U(b, infty).
B. The rejection region for the standardized test statistic:
C. The p-value is
D. Your decision for the hypothesis test:
A. Do Not Reject H1H1.
B. Reject H0H0.
