Question

Glucose Level: Horses –Gentle Ben is a Morgan horse at a Colorado dude ranch. Over the past 8 weeks, a veterinarian took the following glucose readings from this horse (in mg/100 ml).938882105991108489The sample mean is x̄= 93.8. Let x be a random variable representing glucose readings taken from Gentle Ben. We may assume that x has a normal distribution, and we know from experience that σ = 12.5. The mean glucose level for the horse should be μ = 85. Does the data indicate that Gentle Ben has an overall glucose level higher than 85? Use α = 0.05.

l)Compute the test statistic since σ is known:

m)Find the P-Value associated with this z score and the indicated test.

n)Determine if the P-Value is greater or less than the level of significance (α).o)Do you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis?

p)Is there sufficient or insufficient evidence to reject or fail to reject the claim that Gentle Ben’s average glucose level is higher than average?
