Teresa recently switched her primary doctor to one specializing in caring for elderly patients. On her new doctor's website, it says that the mean systolic blood pressure among elderly females is 120 millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Teresa belleves the value is actually higher. She bases her belief on a recently reported study of 10 randomly selected, elderly females. The sample mean systolic blood pressure was 128 mmilie, and the sample standard deviation was 25 mmHg. Assume that the systolic blood pressures of elderly females are approximately normally distributed. Based on the study, at the 0.10 level of significance, can it be concluded that the population mean systolic blood pressure among elderly females, is greater than 120 mmHg? Perform a one-talled test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) state the null hypothesis, and the alternative hypothesis, o P Hu EX M ce DO O USO (1) Determine the type of that statistic to use (Choose one) (0) Find the value of the test statistie.
