What is the degree of freedom (df)? d) Find the P-value from Table- d. e) Test the hypothesis at the significance level a=0.05. Reject H, or Ha? Why? f) What conclusion can you make about the mean weight of students? Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the students' mean weight. g) What value for t* should you use? Find the t* value from Table. h) Do the calculation for the 95% Confidence Interval. i) Based on the 95% Confidence Interval from i), what conclusion can you make about the hypothesis in a)?
