Question
You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question.
Consider the following hypothesis test.
H0: ? ≤ 50
Ha: ? > 50
A sample of 60 is used and the population standard deviation is 8. Use the critical value approach to state your conclusion for each of the following sample results. Use 
? = 0.05.
 (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a)
x = 52.3
Find the value of the test statistic.
 
State the critical values for the rejection rule. (If the test is one-tailed, enter NONE for the unused tail.)

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

The given hypotheses are as follows:

H0: µ ≤ 50.

Ha: µ > 50.

The sample size is 60 and the population standard deviation is 8. The level of significance is 0.05.

Given that, the sample mean is 52.3.

Obtain the test statistic.

z=x-μ0σn=52.3-50860=2.226962.2

Therefore, the value of test statistic is 2.2.
