Use for questions 1-6: To estimate the average amount that U.S. households donated to charity last year, a random sample of 2500 U.S. households were surveyed. Among the households in the sample, the mean amount donated to charity was $2987 with a standard deviation of $1017
I THINK THE POPULATION MEAN IS 2987... that is my best guess. - thank you for the help <3
5. Using the distribution that you identified in question 4, where would you start the tail(s) to find the p-value?
Use two tails started at +/- the value of the standardized test statistic. |

Use two tails started at +/- 2987. |

Use the right tail and start it at 2987. |

Use the right tail and start it at the value of the standardized test statistic. |
the p-value is the probability of obtaining results as extreme as the observed results of a statistical hypothesis test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct. The p-value is used as an alternative to rejection points to provide the smallest level of significance at which the null hypothesis would be rejected. A smaller p-value means that there is stronger evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis.
option 1 is correct
we will Use two tails started at +/- the value of the standardized test statistic.
