You wish to test the following claim ( ( H_{a} ) ) at a significance level of ( alpha=0.005 ). [ egin{array}{l} H_{o}: mu=64.5 \ H_{a}: mu<64.5 end{array} ] You believe the population is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. You obtain a sample of size ( n=26 ) with mean ( M=51.8 ) and a standard deviation of ( S D=16.2 ). What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.) p-value ( = ) The p-value is... less than (or equal to) ( alpha ) greater than ( alpha ) This p-value leads to a decision to... reject the null accept the null fail to reject the null As such, the final conclusion is that... There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is less than 64.5. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is less than 64.5 . The sample data support the claim that the population mean is less than 64.5. There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is less than 64.5.

You wish to test the following claim (Ha) at a significance level of α = 0.05. Ho: μ = 63.1 Ha: μ < 63.1 You believe the population is normally distributed and you know the standard deviation is σ = 9.1. You obtain a sample mean of M = 60.3 for a sample of size n = 23. What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places:) test statistic What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places) p-value The p-value is ___. (less than or equal to) & (greater than) This test statistic leads to a decision to ___. reject the null, accept the null, fail to reject the null As such, the final conclusion is that ___. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is less than 63.1. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the population mean is less than 63.1. The sample data support the claim that the population mean is less than 63.1. There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is less than 63.1.
