Answer:

<em>Any incident ray traveling parallel to the principal axis on the way to the mirror will pass through the focal point upon reflection. Any incident ray passing through the focal point on the way to the mirror will travel parallel to the principal axis upon reflection.</em>

There is not enough evidence at the 0.02 level that the doors are either too long or too short. So, the null hypothesis is accepted.

<h3>How to decide whether the null hypothesis is rejected or accepted?</h3>

Using the p-value approach for the hypothesis test, whether the null hypothesis is rejected or accepted.

If the p-value is greater than the significance level then the null hypothesis is accepted.
If the p-value is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis is rejected.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that,

Sample size n = 17

Sample mean X = 2069

Standard deviation σ = 24

Population mean μ = 2058

Significance level α = 0.02

Hypothesis:

The null hypothesis: H0: μ = 2058

The alternative hypothesis: Ha: μ ≠ 2058

So, the z-test score for the given distribution is,

z-score = (X - μ)/(σ/√n)

On substituting,

z-score = (2069 - 2058)/(24/√17)

= 11/5.82

= 1.89

Thus, the p-value for the z-score of 1.89 is 0.0587 ≅ 0.06.

Since 0.06 > 0.02(significance level), the null hypothesis is accepted. So, there is no sufficient evidence that the doors are either too long or too short.
