To test H<sub>0</sub>: σ = 2.4 versus H<sub>1</sub>: σ > 2.4, a random sample of size n = 21 is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed.
(a) If the sample standard deviation is determined to be s = 3.3, compute the test statistic.
(b) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the α = 0.05 level of significance, use technology to determine the P-value.
(c) Will the researcher reject the null hypothesis?
(a) The test statistic is χ<sup>2</sup><sub>0</sub> =
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
(b) The P-value is
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
(c) Since the P-value is
▼than the level of significance, the researcher
▼reject the null hypothesis H<sub>0</sub>: σ = 2.4.
