A survey of nonprofit organizations showed that online fundraising increased in the past year. Based on a random sample of 60 nonprofit organizations, the mean one-time gift donation in the past year was $75, with a standard deviation of $12. If you test the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the mean one-time gift donation is greater than $70?

The p-value of the test is 0.001 < 0.05, which means that there is evidence at the 0.05 level of significance that the mean one-time gift donation is greater than $70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the mean one-time gift donation is greater than $70:

At the null hypothesis, we test if it is 70 or less, that is:

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if it is greater than 70, that is:

The test statistic is:

In which X is the sample mean, is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

70 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that

Based on a random sample of 60 nonprofit organizations, the mean one-time gift donation in the past year was $75, with a standard deviation of $12.

This means that .

Test statistic:

P-value of the test:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean above 75, which is a right-tailed test with t = 3.23 and 60 - 1 = 59 degrees of freedom.

Using a t-distribution calculator, this p-value is of 0.001.

The p-value of the test is 0.001 < 0.05, which means that there is evidence at the 0.05 level of significance that the mean one-time gift donation is greater than $70.

the battle of gettysburg is considered the "high water mark" of the confederacy because it marked the greatest advance of the confederate forces against the union.

this is a good question! i’ll do some research and what i find, i’ll contact you asap when i have something! ✊
