Current Attempt in Progress
The mean consumption of water per household in a city was 1231 cubic feet per month. Due to a water shortage because of a drought,
the city council campaigned for water use conservation by households. A few months after the campaign was started, the mean
consumption of water for a sample of 92 households was found to be 1151 cubic feet per month. The population standard deviation is
given to be 248 cubic feet.
a. Find the p-value for the hypothesis test that the mean consumption of water per household has decreased due to the campaign by
the city council. Would you reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.05?
