- D. Consider the problem below. Then following the steps indicated in the left column of the table that follows, complete the table to determine the appropriate test statistic to be used and the decision rule for rejecting or not rejecting the null hypothesis. The mean of a normally distributed population is 15. A random sample of 15 measurements from the said population were selected producing x 17.25 and s 13.15. Test the null hypothesis against the alternative hypothesis u> 15 using a 0.05. Steps Solution 1. Population parameter of interest 2. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses. 3.
