- If the test requires that the results be statistically significant at a level of α = 0.05, fill in the blanks and complete the sentences that explain the test decision and conclusion. The decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Colby was in his most recent class, and his class’s mean score on the final exam was 82%. Colby decided to run a hypothesis test to determine if the mean score of his class was significantly greater than the mean score of the population. α = .01. What is the mean score of the population?
