The Graduate Record Exams (GRE) quantitative section has a population mean of 152.6 and population standard deviation of 8.8.

random sample of 48 individuals

Mean GRE quantitative section of the sample to be 155.

Assume we are conducting a two-tailed hypothesis test at an alpha = .05 level.

    1. Write the null hypothesis in symbols and words. Write the alternative hypothesis in symbols and words
    2. How do you calculate the test statistic. How do you compute the p-value using software
    3. Make a decision about the null using the critical value approach. Make a decision about the null using the p-value approach

Follow-up Question
  1. We used a one-tailed test instead of a two-tailed test.
    1. Rewrite the alternative hypothesis (in words and symbols) to reflect a one-tailed test
    2. What would the p-value be? What decision would you make?
    3. Does this agree with the decision from the two-tailed test?
