n: 12
Mean: 220.00
SD: 12.00
α: 0.05
H0:<=200 H1:>200
Reject H0 if t > 1.796
t=(220.00 - 200.0)/(12.00/sq 12)
t= 20.00 / 3.46
t= 5.77
Reject H0 because t value is greater than 1.796
A restaurant that bills its house account monthly is concerned that the average monthly bill exceeds $200 per account. A random sample of twelve accounts is selected, resulting in the sample mean of $220 and a sample standard deviation of $12. The researchers have determined that they should test that the mean bill exceeds $200 at the 5% level of significance.
