2-find the tast statistic 3- find p-value 4- what is an appropriate conclusion for the test?
In the American Heart Association journal Hypertension, researchers report that individuals
who practice Transcendental Meditation (TM) lower their blood pressure significantly. If a
random sample of 244 male TM practitioners meditate for 8.5 hours per week with a
standard deviation of 2.24 hours, does that suggest that, on average, men who use TM
meditate more than 8 hours per week? Quote a P-value in your conclusion.
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
