Use the data set provided ibelow
1. Complete the full hypothesis testing procedure to determine if
students at TCC watch less television than Americans in general.
Use the fact that Americans watch 5.5 hours of television per day
with a standard deviation of 1 hour per day. Include the following
in your report:
a) Hypotheses using correct notation (2 points)
b) type of test (left, right, two-tailed) (1 point), distribution
used (normal or t) (1 point), reasons why (2 points)
c) level of significance, choose one based on how serious the study
is (2 points)
d) Sample statistics (sample size and sample mean or sample
proportion) (2 points)
e) P-Value (2 point) (Round answer to four decimal places)
f) Interpretation of P-value (Use Definition of P-Value but be
specific to this context) (1 point)
g) Drawing or graph of P-value. (2 points)
h) Decision (2 point)
i) Conclusion in complete sentences. (3 points)

Let denote the mean number of hours of TV watched per day by students at TCC
Assuming level of significance = 0.05
This test is a left tailed test as the alternative hypothesis contains " <" sign.
