In the StudentSurveydata, there are 30 male seniors. The table below gives the number of hours per week that each said he spent exercising. Researchers are interested in the mean number of hours per week for male seniors spent exercising. Number of hours males spent exercising a week 10 14 7 9 3 5 7 13 13 5 18 12 9 3 7 6 12 6 8 3 3 5 14 14 7 19 0 2 4 6 1. Doctors have noted that male seniors should spend an average of 6 hours per week exercising. Perform a hypothesis test to determine whether male seniors spend fewer than 6 hours on average exercising each week. A. State the null and alternative hypotheses. B. Compute the appropriate test statistic and use Statkey to identify the resulting p-value. C. At a=.05 significance level, what is your conclusion for your test?
