Help. I think I've got this wrong

2. Homser Lake, Oregon, has an Atlantic salmon catch and release program that has been very successful. The average fisherman's catch has been over 8.8 Atlantic salmon per day. Suppose a new quota system restricting the number of fishermen has been put into effect this season. A random sample of 37 fisherman caught on average 8.9 fish per day. Based on a previous study, assume the population standard deviation is 4.03 fish per day. Use a 10% level of significance to test the claim that the average catch per day is now more than 8.8 Atlantic salmon. (10pts) Step 1 Ha. M >8.8 ( claim ) Ho:ML 8 8 Step 2 a = 0.10 step 3 Right tailed +-test Step 4 TX M d.f = n - 1 = 37 - 1 = 36 1. 306 -1.306 1:306 Step 5 n= 37 X= 8.9 + - X - M + = - 8.9-8.8 20. 15 5 = 4.03 S/ Nn 4.03/ 137 Fall to reject Ho Step b At 10 level of significance we fail to reject the null hypothes that the average fisherman's catch is less than or equal to 8.8 salmon
