Suppose you are testing Ho: µ= 13 versus H1: µ # 13. The sample is small (n = 12) and the data come from a normal population. The variance, o², is unknown. (a) Should you use z or t when finding a critical region for this scenario? (b) Find the critical value(s) corresponding to a = 0.07. (c) State the critical region.

Expert Solution
Step 1

(a)

Here, sample size is small and the variance, σ2, is unknown. Therefore, to find the critical region for this scenario, you should use t-distribution.
