Hello, I am having trouble with section (c) and the last question for this problem 

A mixture of pulverized fuel ash and Portland cement to be used for grouting should have a compressive strength of more than 1,300 KN/m2. The mixture will not be used unless experimental evidence indicates conclusively that the strength specification has been met. Suppose compressive strength for specimens of this
mixture is normally distributed with o = 65. Let μ denote the true average compressive strength.
(a) What are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses?
O Ho: μ> 1,300
H₂: μ = 1,300
|Ο Hg: μ < 1,300
H₂: μ = 1,300
OH = 1,300
H₂:μ 1,300
Ho: μ = 1,300
Ha: μ< 1,300
Ho: μ = 1,300
Ha: μ> 1,300
(b) Let X denote the sample average compressive strength for n = 13 randomly selected specimens. Consider the test procedure with test statistic X itself (not standardized). What is the probability distribution of the test statistic when Ho is true?
O The test statistic has a gamma distribution.
O The test statistic has an exponential distribution.
O The test statistic has a normal distribution.
O The test statistic has a binomial distribution.
If X = 1,340, find the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
P-value = 0.0132
Should Ho be rejected using a significance level of 0.01?
O reject Ho
O do not reject Ho
(c) What is the probability distribution of the test statistic when μ = 1,350 and n = 13?
O The test statistic has a normal distribution.
O The test statistic has a binomial distribution.
O The test statistic has a gamma distribution.
O The test statistic has an exponential distribution.
State the mean and standard deviation (in KN/m2) of the test statistic. (Round your standard deviation to three decimal places.)
KN/m²
mean
1350
2.7737
standard deviation

For a test with a = 0.01, what is the probability that the mixture will be judged unsatisfactory when in fact μ = 1,350 (a type II error)? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
0.9973 X
You may need to use the appropriate table in the Appendix of Tables to answer this question.
