(uE.
C.
Check the conditions to see whether the test statistic will follow a t-distribution.
The sample is random and the observations are independent The distribution of the sample is approximately Normal.
Find the test statistic.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Find the
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
The final answer is that the p-value is approximately
Step 1 :First, we need to determine the null and alternative hypotheses. The null hypothesis
Step 2 :Next, we check the conditions to see whether the test statistic will follow a t-distribution. The sample is random and the observations are independent. The distribution of the sample is approximately Normal.
Step 3 :Then, we find the test statistic. The test statistic is
Step 4 :Finally, we find the p-value. The p-value is the probability of obtaining a test statistic as extreme as -1.12, or more extreme, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true. Using the formula for the p-value with a t-distribution, we find that the p-value is approximately 0.292.
Step 5 :The final answer is that the p-value is approximately
