mean /l and unknown variance 02. The null hypothesis Ho:/t=65 is to be tested<br />

against the alternative hypothesis Hu:H#65 atrr,= 0.05. If the resulting sample mean<br />

is 68'25 and s2 = 9, what is the value of the appropriate test statistic and the conclusion?<br />

(A) 1.96; reject Ho<br />

(B) 2. 132; reject Ho<br />

Frequency 2 8 2 J 8<br />

A goodness-of-fit chi-square test is to be used to test the null hypothesis that the die is<br />
