State and clearly label: the distribution to be used (normal, t or chi-square), the symbolic form of the claim and each hypothesis, the test statistic (rounded to two-decimal places), the p-value (rounded to 4 decimal places), and the decision (reject or fail to reject H,). A car manufacturer would like to show that the fuel economy (in miles per gallon, mpg) of its new car is at least 19.8 mpg. In a random sample of 37 cars, the mean fuel economy was 19.45 mpg with a standard deviation of 1.14 mpg. Use a 0.05 level of significance to test the manufacturer's claim.
