1. Calculate the value of the test stastic (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final awwer to 2 decimal places) 224 c. Find the p-value. (Round final answer to 3 decimal places.) p-value d. What is the conclusion? O Reject Ho since the p-value is greater than significance level. Reject Ho since the p-value is smaller than significance level. O Do not reject Ho since the p-value is greater than significance level.
