11. ling 05 * equals (a) (b) 0 (c) 1 (e) a

Consider the following hypothesis test:

H0: µ = 20
Ha: µ < 20
A sample of 50 provided a sample mean of 19.4. The population standard deviation is 2.
a. Compute the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals).

b. What is the p-value (to 3 decimals)?

c. Using a = .05, can it be concluded that the population mean is less than 20?

d. Using a = .05, what is the critical value for the test statistic?

e. State the rejection rule: Reject H0 if z is the critical value.
f. Using a = .05, can it be concluded that the population mean is less than 20

How do I find the Z score for a statistic without standard deviation give Pop mean =.05%, n=100, Sample mean of .11%?
