In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering​ cholesterol,
4949

subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes​ (before minus​ after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol​ (in mg/dL) have a mean of
0.30.3

and a standard deviation of
2.142.14

Use a
0.100.10

significance level to test the claim that with garlic​ treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than
00.

What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic​ treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.


What are the null and alternative​ hypotheses?






A.



Upper H 0H0​:

muμequals=00

​mg/dL


Upper H 1H1​:

muμless than<>

​mg/dL






B.



Upper H 0H0​:

muμequals=00

​mg/dL


Upper H 1H1​:

muμgreater than>00

​mg/dL






C.



Upper H 0H0​:

muμequals=00

​mg/dL


Upper H 1H1​:

muμnot equals≠00

​mg/dL






D.



Upper H 0H0​:

muμgreater than>00

​mg/dL


Upper H 1H1​:

muμless than<>

​mg/dL




Determine the test statistic.




​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

Determine the​ P-value.




​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.







Upper H 0H0.

There is not



evidence to conclude that the mean of the population of changes



is greater than





00.
