A new concrete mix is being designed to provide adequate compressive strength for concrete blocks. The specification for a particular application calls for the blocks to have a mean compressive strength µ greater than 1350 kPa. A sample of 100 blocks is produced and tested. Their mean compressive strength is 1356 kPa and their standard deviation is 70 kPa. What is the most appropriate null hypothesis regarding the population mean µ. Indicate the alternate hypothesis as well. Find the P-value....
