A simple random sample of 40 recorded speeds (in mi h) is obtained from cars traveling on

Question:

A simple random sample of 40 recorded speeds (in mi h) is obtained from cars traveling on a section of Highway 405 in Los Angeles. The sample has a mean of 68.4 mi h and a standard deviation of 5.7 mi h (based on data from Sigalert). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean speed of all cars is greater than the posted speed limit of 65 mi h.

Assume that a simple random sample has been selected from a normally distributed population and test the given claim. Unless specified by your instructor, use either the traditional method or P-value method for testing hypotheses. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
