Recall that "very satisfied" customers give the XYZ-Box video game system a rating that is at least 42. Suppose that the manufacturer of the XYZ-Box wishes to use the random sample of 62 satisfaction ratings to provide evidence supporting the claim that the mean composite satisfaction rating for the XYZ-Box exceeds 42.
(a) Letting µ represent the mean composite satisfaction rating for the XYZ-Box, set up the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis Ha needed if we wish to attempt to provide evidence supporting the claim that µ exceeds 42.
(b) The random sample of 62 satisfaction ratings yields a sample mean of x⎯⎯=42.990 x ¯ = 42.990 . Assuming that σ equals 2.69, use critical values to test H0 versus Ha at each of α = .10, .05, .01, and .001. (Round your answer z.05 to 3 decimal places and other z-scores to 2 decimal places.) z= _______
(c) Using the information in part (b), calculate the p-value and use it to test H0 versus Ha at each of α = .10, .05, .01, and .001. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) p-value=_____
(d) How much evidence is there that the mean composite satisfaction rating exceeds 42?
