A recent study showed that the average number of sticks of gum a
person chews in a week is 10. The population standard deviation was
2.3. A college student believes that the guys in his dormitory chew
a different amount of gum in a week. He conducts a study and
samples 45 of the guys in his dorm and finds that on average they
chew 11 sticks of gum in a week. Test the college student's claim
at αα=0.01.
Since the level of significance is 0.01 the critical value is 2.576
and -2.576
The test statistic is: (round to 3 places)
The p-value is: (round to 3 places)
