Based on the calculations, the value of the test statistic and p-value are equal to -2.1213 and 0.0169 respectively.
Given the following data:
Standard deviation = 2.Sample mean = 19.4.Number of sample = 50.Hypothesized mean = 20.How to compute the test static?Mathematically, the value of the test statistic can be computed by using this formula:
[tex]Z=\frac{\bar{x}\;-\;\mu}{ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }\\\\Z=\frac{19.4\;-\;20}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{50}}}\\\\Z=\frac{-0.6}{0.282842 }[/tex]
zₓ = -2.1213.
From the z-table, the p-value is given by:
P(Z < zₓ) = P(Z < -2.1213)
P(Z < -2.1213) = 0.0169.
Since the p-value is equal to 0.0169 less than α = 0.05, we would reject H₀ : µ equal to 20. Thus, we would conclude that µ < 20.
