Example 2 -- For

µ

= 150,

x = 158, s = 10, n = 50, for α = 0.05, test the

hypothesis H

:

µ = µ

0

, against the alternative hypothesis, H

1

:

µ > µ

0

. The

population standard deviation,

σ, is not known.


Press

Enter the following data and press

@@@OK@@@:


Select the alternative hypothesis, H

:

µ > 150, and press @@@OK@@@. The result is:


We reject the null hypothesis, H
