(26)

Consider the following hypotheses:

H0: 204

A sample of 76 observations results in a sample mean of 188. The population standard deviation is known to be 16. Use Table 1.

What is the critical value for the test with = 0.10 and with = 0.01? (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Does the above sample evidence enable us to do not reject the null hypothesis at = 0.10?

Does the above sample evidence enable us to do not reject the null hypothesis at = 0.01?

Consider the following hypotheses:
