Expert Solution
Step 1

The critical region is t > 1.875.

That is, if standardized test statistic is greater than 1.875 then reject the null hypothesis. Otherwise fail to reject the null hypothesis.

a)

t = 1.937

Since 1.937> 1.875, decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

b)

t = 0

Since 0 < 1.875, decision is fail to reject the null hypothesis.
