Statistics students believe that the mean score on a first statistics test is 65. The instructor thinks that the mean score is higher. She samples 10 statistics students and obtains the scores:

Grades 96 66.5 85.5 85.5 65 69 61.9 96 73.5 88



Test grades are believed to be normally distributed.

Use a significance level of 5%.

  1. State the alternative hypothesis: HA:HA:
    • μ<65μ<65
    • μ>65μ>65
    • μ≠65μ≠65
  2. State the mean of the sample: 
  3. State the standard error of the sample means:
