Answer:
H0: μ ≤ 34
H1: μ > 34
The z-test statistic is ≈ 1.8
The critical z-score is 1.28
we fail to reject the null hypothesis H0: μ ≤ 34
Step-by-step explanation:
H0: μ ≤ 34
H1: μ > 34
The z-test statistic is calculated using the formula:
z= where
- X is the average class size found in the sample (35.6)
- M is the mean according to the null hypothesis (34)
- s is the standard deviation for class size (9)
then z= ≈ 0.18
The critical z-score is 1.28 for α=0.10 (one tailed)
Because the test statistic is less than the critical value, do not reject the null hypothesis.
