The mean body temperature of the human body under normal conditions is accepted to be98.6

F

. Jason is a pre-med student who is skeptical of this claim. To test this claim, he selects a random sample of47

people to record their body temperatures. The following is the data from this study:

• The alternative hypothesisHa:98.6.
• The sample mean body temperatureof the47people is98.3F.
• The sample standard deviation is0.80F.
• The test statistic is calculated as2.57.

Using the information above andthe portion of thet

table below, choose the correctp

value and interpretationfor this hypothesis test.
