Calculate the standardized test statistic.

The standardized test statistic is 1.32.

We are given
μ > 1180
α = 0.02
σ = 201.71
x =
1198.79
n = 200

The null hypothesis is
μ ≤ 1180 while the alternative hypothesis is μ > 1180
The test statistic is 1.32 which means that the confidence internval is 98%. Getting the z-score
z = (x - μ) / σ
z = (1198.79 - 1180) / 201.71
z = 0.093

For a normally distributed population, the z-score of 0.093 has a p-value of
p = 0.46
