Consider the following hypothesis test:
H0: μ ≤ 29
Ha: > 29
(a) Compute the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals).
(b) What is the p-value (to 4 decimals)? Use the value of the test statistic rounded to 2 decimal places in your calculations.

a)    

b)  

c) If we compare the p value and the significance level given we see that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis

d) For this case since we have a right tailed test we need to find a critical value on the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.01 of the area on the right tail, and this value is:

And the rejection zone for H0 would be

And since our calculated value 1.48<2.326 we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is complete like this:

A sample of 40 provided a sample mean of 30.4. The population standard deviation is 6.

a. Compute the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals).

Data given and notation  

represent the sample mean    

represent the population standard deviation for the sample  

sample size  

represent the value that we want to test  

represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 29, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

(1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

b. What is the p-value (to 4 decimals)? Use the value of the test statistic rounded to 2 decimal places in your calculations.

P-value  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

c. At = .01, what is your conclusion? p-value _____ is H0

If we compare the p value and the significance level given we see that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis

d. What is the rejection rule using the critical value? Reject H0 if z _____ is What is your conclusion? ____ H0

For this case since we have a right tailed test we need to find a critical value on the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.01 of the area on the right tail, and this value is:

And the rejection zone for H0 would be

And since our calculated value 1.48<2.326 we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

circle area = pi * radius^2

if diameter = 10 then radius = 5

circle area = pi * 5^2

circle area = pi * 25

circle area = 78.5398163397 square units
