(ii) Which of the following statements correctly definesthe alternative hypothesis HA?

A.  μ <$60.29  

B.  p < $60.29

C.  μ = $60.29

D.  p = $60.29

(iii) Enter the level of significance α usedfor this test:

Enter in decimal form. Examples of correctly enteredanswers:  0.01    0.02   0.05    0.10

(vii) Calculate and enter test statistic

Enter value in decimal form rounded to nearestten-thousandth, with appropriate sign (no spaces). Examples ofcorrectly entered answers:

–2.0140     –0.0307        +0.6000       +1.0009

(viii) Using tables, calculator, or spreadsheet:Determine and enter p-value corresponding to teststatistic.

Enter value in decimal form rounded to nearest thousandth.Examples of correctly entered answers:

0.000     0.001    0.030     0.600     0.814 1.000

(ix) Comparing p-value and α value, which isthe correct decision to make for this hypothesis test?

A. Reject Ho

B. Fail to reject Ho

C. Accept Ho

D. Accept HA

(x) Select the statement that most correctly interpretsthe result of this test:

A. The result is statistically significant at .05 levelof significance. Evidence supports the claim that the mean economicdynamism for a middle-income country is less than 60.29, the meanfor high-income countries.

B. The result is statistically significant at .05 levelof significance. There is not enough evidence to support the claimthat the mean economic dynamism for a middle-income country is lessthan 60.29, the mean for high-income countries.

C. The result is not statistically significant at .05level of significance. Evidence supports the claim that the meaneconomic dynamism for a middle-income country is less than 60.29,the mean for high-income countries.

D. The result is not statistically significant at .05level of significance.   There is not enough evidence tosupport the claim that the mean economic dynamism for amiddle-income country is less than 60.29, the mean for high-incomecountries.

Enter letter corresponding to most correct answer
