### Hypothesis Testing

You wish to test the following claim \((H_a)\) at a significance level of \(\alpha = 0.05\).

- \(H_0: \mu = 55.6\)
- \(H_a: \mu \neq 55.6\)

You believe the population is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. You obtain a sample of size \(n = 14\) with mean \(M = 58.4\) and a standard deviation of \(SD = 11.6\).

#### Questions:

1. **What is the test statistic for this sample?** 
   - (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)
   - **Test statistic =** [ ]

2. **What is the p-value for this sample?**
   - (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.)
   - **p-value =** [ ]

3. **The p-value is...**
   - [ ] less than (or equal to) \(\alpha\)
   - [ ] greater than \(\alpha\)

This test statistic leads to a decision to...
