A credit card company lowered its annual interest rate recently. Records showed that before the rate change, the average outstanding balance on a credit card was $580. The managers believed that if they lowered interest rates that this would increase the average outstanding balance. To test this claim, a random sample of 30 accounts was examined after the rate decrease. The average outstanding balance of this sample was $620 with a standard deviation of $105. At a 5% significance level, can it be concluded that the lower interest rate resulted in average account balance greater than $580? a) Set up the null and alternative hypotheses in words and in mathematical symbols.
b) State the sample size, sample mean and sample standard deviation.
c) State the mean and standard error for the sampling distribution. Sketch the sampling distribution and label the mean, standard error, the observed value, and shade in the region for the P-value.
d) Find the test statistic, P-value, and state your conclusion in complete sentence(s).
