How do I solve a problem like this?
The accompanying data table lists the magnitudes of 50 earthquakes measured on the Richter scale. Test the claim that the population of earthquakes has a mean magnitude greater than 1.00. Use a 0.01 significance level. Identify the nullhypothesis, alternativehypothesis, teststatistic, P-value, and conclusion for the test. Assume this is a simple random sample.
