Question: Consider the following hypotheses: H 0 : ? = 40 H A : ? ? 40 43 39 42 38 44 39 44 a. Find

Consider the following hypotheses:
H0? = 40
HA? ? 40

43 39 42 38 44 39 44

a. Find the mean and the standard deviation. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.

b. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. Find the p-value.
  • p-value 0.10
  • 0.05 p-value <>
  • 0.02 p-value <>
  • 0.01 p-value <>
  • p-value <>
d. At the 10% significance level, what is the conclusion?
  • Reject H0 since the p-value is greater than ?.
  • Reject H0 since the p-value is smaller than ?.
  • Do not reject H0 since the p-value is greater than ?.
  • Do not reject H0 since the p-value is smaller than ?.
e. Interpret the results ?? = 0.1.

We conclude that the sample mean differs from 40.

  • We cannot conclude that the population mean differs from 40.
  • We conclude that the population mean differs from 40.
  • We cannot conclude that the sample mean differs from 40.
