Answer:
The null hypothesis is
.
The alternative hypothesis is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that a recent article stated that the mean time spent in jail by a first-time convicted burglar is 2.5 years.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of 2.5 years, that is:

A study was then done to see if the mean time has increased in the new century.
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean has increased, that is, if it is above 2.5 years. So

Answer:
97
Step-by-step explanation:
Marcus is aiming for an A- (90-94 percent). The question states that there is another test awaiting that is worth 100 points. In order to find the answer to the question, you need to:
1.) Add 400 + 100, to show how many points there are in total.
2.) Use the answer choices and add it to 353.
88 + 353 = 441
93 + 353 = 446
97 + 353 = 450
3.) Find the percentage of the sums.
441/500 = 88%
446/500 = 89%
450/500 = 90%
Since Marcus is aiming for an A-, we can conclude that obtaining 97 points will help Marcus achieve an A-.
