(a) State the null hypothesis.
a) H0: μ > 30
b) H0: μ < 30   
c) H0: μ = 30
d)H0: μ ≠ 30
e)H0: μ ≥ 30

(b) State the alternate hypothesis if you have no information regarding how the population mean might differ from 30.
a) H1: μ > 30
b) H1: μ < 30    
c)H1: μ = 30
d)H1: μ ≠ 30
e)H1: μ ≥ 30

(c) State the alternative hypothesis if you believe (based on experience or past studies) that the population mean may exceed 30.
a)H1: μ > 30
b) H1: μ < 30    
c) H1: μ = 30
d) H1: μ ≠ 30
e) H1: μ ≥ 30

(d) State the alternative hypothesis if you believe (based on experience or past studies) that the population mean may be less than 30.
a) H1: μ > 30
b) H1: μ < 30    
c) H1: μ = 30
d) H1: μ ≠ 30
e) H1: μ ≥ 30
