Question
If, in a sample of
n=14
selected from a
left-skewed
population,
X=66
and
S=25,
would you use the t test to test the null hypothesis
H0: μ=64?
Question content area bottom
Part 1
Choose the correct answer below.
No,
you
would not
use the t test because the less than
30 and
the population
is left-skewed.
No, you would not use the t test because the sample size is at least 30 and the population is
left-skewed.
Yes, you would use the t test because the sample size is less than 30 and this population size allows for the Central Limit Theorem to take effect.
Yes,

- 2. The steps of hypothesis testing You intend to draw a random sample in order to test a hypothesis about an unknown population mean. You will use a hypothesis test. A description of each of the steps of a hypothesis test follows, but they may be specified in the incorrect order. Specify the correct order of the steps. Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Select a level of significance. Make a decision about the unknown population.
