Test the claim that the mean GPA of night students is larger than 2.5 at the .025 significance level.
The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

H0:μ=2.5H0:μ=2.5
H1:μ<2.5H1:μ<2.5
H1:μ<2.5H1:μ<2.5
The test is:
right-tailed
left-tailed
two-tailed
Based on a sample of 30 people, the sample mean GPA was 2.54 with a standard deviation of 0.07
The test statistic is: (to 2 decimals)
The critical value is: (to 2 decimals)
Based on this we:
- Reject the null hypothesis
- Fail to reject the null hypothesis
