The value of the test statistic is -1.25.

The value of the test statistic can be computed using the following formula:

z = (x - μ) / (σ / √n)

where:

x is the sample mean (49)

μ is the hypothesized mean (52)

σ is the population standard deviation (24)

n is the sample size (67)

Plugging in the values, we get:

z = (49 - 52) / (24 / √67) ≈ -1.25

Therefore, the value of the test statistic is -1.25.

Question

a test is made of h0: u= 52 versus H1: u> 52. a sample size n=67 is drawn and sample mean is 49. the population standard deviation is 24. compute the value of the test statistic.
