Exercise 9

Avg difficulty 3.0

Find the mean. You are given the following hypotheses:

H0\displaystyle H_{0} :μ=60\displaystyle:\mu=60 HA\displaystyle H_{A} :μ≠60\displaystyle:\mu\neq 60

We know that the sample standard deviation is 8 and the sample size is 20. For what sample mean would the p-value be equal to 0.05? Assume that all conditions necessary for inference are satisfied.
