Question
![To test the hypothesis that the population mean
mu 17.4, a sample size n=11 yields a sample
mean 18.641 and sample standard deviation
1.905. Calculate the P-value and choose the
correct conclusion.
Your answer:
O

The P-value 0.009 is not significant and so
does not strongly suggest that mu>17.4.

- The National Weather Service says that the mean daily high temperature for October in a large mid-western city is 56°F. A local weather service suspects that this value is not accurate and wants to perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean is actually lower than 56°F. A sample of mean daily high temperatures for October over the past 37 years yields a sample mean of 54o F. Assume that the population standard deviation is 5.6° F.
