A data set lists earthquake depths. The summary statistics are
n=400,
x=5.49
km,
s=4.74
km. Use a
0.01
significance level to test the claim of a seismologist that these earthquakes are from a population with a mean equal to
5.00.
Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
