Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 6.2 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is not at a normal level. The mean of 23 samples is 6.4 ppm with a standard deviation of 0.7. Assume the population is normally distributed. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. State the null and alternative hypotheses.

H0 : μ = 6.2

H1 : μ ≠ 6.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Population mean, μ = 6.2 ppm

The hypothesis :

Null, H0 : = The mean level of Ozone is normally 6.2 ppm ;

The alternative hypothesis is the researcher's claim that the current ozone level is not normal, that is it may be higher or lower than the normal value in ppm

Hence, the hypothesis could be written as :

H0 : μ = 6.2

H1 : μ ≠ 6.2

the functions have the same rate of change i think. i narrowed it down to this answer and "the rate of change of tour 1 is greater" but i got it wrong using that answer so im assuming its the answer above. (this is a question i also answered from the iready site if anyone needs a reference)
