You wish to test the following claim (Ha) at a significance level of α=0.02

      Ho:μ=54.6
      Ha:μ>54.6

You believe the population is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. You obtain a sample of size n=87 with mean M=55.8and a standard deviation of SD=7.7

What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.) 
test statistic = 

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

The p-value is...

A-less than (or equal to) αα

B-greater than αα



This test statistic leads to a decision to...

A-reject the null

B-accept the null

C-fail to reject the null



As such, the final conclusion is that...

A-There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is greater than 54.6.

B-There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is greater than 54.6.

C-The sample data support the claim that the population mean is greater than 54.6.

D-There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is greater than 54.6.
