An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 200 engines and the mean pressure was 4.4 lbs/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 0.9. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 4.5 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve performs below the specifications?
State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
