The Bay Area Online Institute (BAOI) has set a guideline of 60 hours for the time it should take to complete an independent study course. To see if the guideline needs to be changed and if the actual time taken to complete the course exceeds60 hours, 16 students are randomly chosen and the average time to complete the course was 68hours with a standard deviation of 20 hours. What inference can BAOI make about the time it takes to complete this course?

 At the 5% level, BAOI can infer that the average time to complete does not exceeds 60 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is

    The sample size is  

    The  sample mean is  

     The  standard deviation is  

The  null hypothesis is  

The  alternative

Here we would assume the level of significance of this test to be  

Next we will obtain the critical value of the level of significance from the normal distribution table, the value is    

  Generally the test statistics  is mathematically represented as

substituting values

Looking at the value of t and   we see that hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

   This means that there no sufficient evidence to conclude that it takes more than 60 hours to complete the course

So

   At the 5% level, BAOI can infer that the average time to complete does not exceeds 60 hours.

c) yes, because of asa or aas

answer: you need the equation in the question so i can answer it
