Consider the following hypothesis test: $H_0: \mu ≤ 20$ A sample of 81 produced a sample mean of 20.55. The population standard deviation is 3. The value of the test statistic is: |
1.85 -2.05 -2.15 1.65 |
1.65 |
The correct answer is Option (4) - 1.65 $z = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}$ $= \frac{20.55 - 20}{3/\sqrt{81}}$ $= \frac{0.55}{3/9}$ $= \frac{0.55}{\frac{1}{3}}$ $= 0.55 \times 3 = 1.65$ The value of the test statistic is $1.65$. |
