An experimenter is interested in the hypothesis testing problemH0 : µ = 373 vs µ 6= 373where µ is the average breaking strength of a bundle of wool fibers. Suppose that a sampleof n = 29 wool fiber bundles is obtained and their breaking strengths are measured.(a) For what values of the t-statistic does the experimenter accept the null hypothesis with asize α = 0.10?(b) For what values of the t-statistic does the experimenter reject the null hypothesis with asize α = 0.01?Suppose that the sample mean is ¯x = 312.7 and the sample standard deviation is s = 8.13.(a) Is the null hypothesis accepted or rejected with α = 0.10? With α = 0.01?(b) Write down an expression for the p-value and evaluate it using a computer package.
