True mean,   µ =    5.8                              
hypothesis mean,   µo =    4.6                              
                                      
Level of Significance ,    α =    0.05                              
std dev =    σ =    3
power =    0.8                              
ß= 1-power = 0.2                              
δ=   µ - µo =    1.2                              
                                      
Z ( α ) =       1.6449
