Based on a random sample of 21 observations selected from a normal population, the sample standard deviation is s = 7.2. We test
Ho : σ2 = 30 vs. Ha : σ2 > 30 at the 0.05 level of significance.
Find the rejection region and the observed value of the test statistic.
(a) The rejection region is χ2 > 32.6705 with 21 degrees of
freedom and the observed value of the test statistic is 34.56
(b) The rejection region is χ2 > 31.4104 with 20 degrees of
freedom and the observed value of the test statistic is
36.288
(c) The rejection region is χ2 > 31.4104 with 20 degrees of
freedom and the observed value of the test statistic is 34.56
(c)
(d) The rejection region is χ2 > 10.8508 with 20 degrees of
freedom and the observed value of the test statistic is 4.9
C is the correct answer, I just don't know how to find the test statistic.
Thank you in advance.

A sample of 30 observations is selected from a normal
population. The sample mean is 21, and the population standard
deviation is 6. Conduct the following test of hypothesis using the
0.05 significance level.
H0: μ ≤ 20
H1: μ > 20
Is this a one- or two-tailed test?
"One-tailed"—the alternate hypothesis is greater than
direction.
"Two-tailed"—the alternate hypothesis is different from
direction.

A random
sample is selected from a normal population with a mean of µ = 30
and a standard deviation of σ= 8. After a treatment is administered
to the individuals in the sample, the sample mean is found to be x̅

Furthermore,
if the sample consists of n = 64 scores, is the sample
mean sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant
effect? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05.
