Question

The dean of a University estimates that the mean number of classroom hours per week for full time faculty is 11.0. As a member of the student council, you want to test this claim. A random sample for a number of classroom hours for eight full time faculty for one week provided a mean of 10.05 hours and a standard deviation of 2.485 hours. Test the claim that the number of faculty classroom hours per week is equal to 11 at an alpha level of .01. Choose the best possible answer

	a.	Accept the claim since t calculated of -1.081 is between the critical t values of -1.895 and 1.895
	b.	Accept the claim since t calculated of -1.081 is between the critical t values of -3.499 and 3.499
	c.	Reject the claim since t calculated of -1.081 is less the critical t values of -0.896
	d.	Reject the claim since t calculated of -1.081 does not fall between the critical t values
	e.	None of the above
