The trаin ride is аlwаys a favоrite at the amusement park. A sample оf 100 trips taken by the train arоund the park found that sample mean number of persons riding the train was 107 with a sample standard deviation of 45. Suppose some researchers want to test a claim that the mean number of persons riding was not 120. Take alpha to be 0.05. The appropriate degrees of freedom would be: The t-statistic would be: The p-value would be: The critical test statistics (t crit) would be: What action should be taken for a level of significance of 0.05? The 95% confidence interval for this set of data will be: Interpret the confidence interval:
