Bastien, Inc. has been manufacturing small automobiles that have averaged 50 miles per gallon of gasoline in highway driving. The company has developed a more efficient engine for its small cars and now advertises that its new small cars average more than 50 miles per gallon in highway driving. An independent testing service road-tested 36 of the automobiles. The sample showed an average of 51.5 miles per gallon. The population standard deviation is 6 miles per gallon. (Given significance level

State the hypotheses.

Now the p value for this case would be given by:

Assuming a significance level of 0.05 or 5% we see that the p value is higher than the significance level we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is higher than 50 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

represent the sample mean for the new small cars

represent the population deviation

sample size  

represent the value to check

t would represent the statistic

represent the p value for the test

System of hypothesis

We want to check if the new small cars average more than 50 miles per gallon in highway driving, the system of hypothesis are:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

Since the population deviation is given the the statistic is given by:

 (1)  

The statistic for this case is given by:

Now the p value for this case would be given by:

Assuming a significance level of 0.05 or 5% we see that the p value is higher than the significance level we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is higher than 50 miles per gallon
