Answer:
a) Critical value = -1.285
b) We should reject null hypothesis that the mean equals 0.32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the statistic of z equals negative 2.40 is obtained when testing the claim that less than 0.32
i.e. for hypotheses
[tex]H_0: \bar = 0.32\\H_a: \bar x <0.32\\[/tex]
(one tailed test at 10% significance level)
Z critical value for 90% one tailed = -1.285
Since our test statistic is less than -1.285 we reject null hypothesis
a) Critical value = -1.285
b) We should reject null hypothesis that the mean equals 0.32
