For each of the following sampling scenarios, choose an appropriate test statistic for our hypothesis test on the population mean. Then calculate that statistic. Round answer to 2 decimal places. (a) The sample has size 16, and it is from a normally distributed population with a known standard deviation of 77. z= t= or it is unclear which test statistic to use. (b) The sample has size 18, and it is from a normally distributed population with an unknown standard deviation. z= t= or it is unclear which test statistic to use.
We want to conduct a hypothesis test of the claim that the population mean score on a nationwide examination in anthropology is different from 481. So, we choose a random sample of exam scores. The sample has a mean of 488 and a standard deviation of 75.
