Follow-up Question
  1. We used a one-tailed test instead of a two-tailed test.
    1. Rewrite the alternative hypothesis (in words and symbols) to reflect a one-tailed test
    2. What would the p-value be? What decision would you make?
    3. Does this agree with the decision from the two-tailed test?
