She randomly surveys 56 online students and finds that the sample mean is 29.4 years with a standard deviation of 2.1 years. At the 1%1 \% level of significance (α=0.01)(\alpha=0.01), what can be concluded about the administrator's claim? Include the following steps in your test. - State the null and alternative hypotheses - Calculate the test statistic - Find the p-value - Make a decision whether to reject H0\mathrm{H}_{0} - Write an interpretation of the results
