Given the following hypotheses:

H₀ : 27

H₁ : > 27

A random sample of 42 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 29 and the sample standard deviation was 2. Using the 0.10 significance level:

a. State the decision rule. (Round the final answer to 3 decimal places.)

(Click to select) Reject Do not reject H₀ if t > .

b. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round the final answer to 3 decimal places.)

Value of the test statistic

c. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?

(Click to select) Reject Accept H₀. At the 0.01 significance level, the mean (Click to select) is is not greater than 27.
