Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: A random sample of 10 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 12 and the sample standard deviation was 3. Using the 0.05 significance level: a. State the decision rule. b. Compute the value of the test statistic. c. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis and .

We are given that a random sample of 10 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 12 and the sample standard deviation was 3.

Let = population mean

So, Null Hypothesis, :    {means that the population mean is less than or equal to 10}

Alternate Hypothesis, : > 10    {means that the population mean is greater than 10}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                             T.S.  =    ~  

where, = sample mean = 12

             s = sample standard deviation = 3  

            n = sample of observations = 10

So, the test statistics =    ~  

                                    =  2.108  

The value of t-test statistics is 2.108.

Now, at a 0.05 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of 1.833 at 9 degrees of freedom for the right-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics is more than the critical value of t as 2.108 > 1.833, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the population mean is greater than 10.

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral
