The average yield of the standard variety off soybeans per acre on a farm in a region is 48.8 bushels per acre, with a standard deviation of 12.0 bushels per acre. we have developed a new variety of soybean that we believe will have a higher mean yield per acre. to test this, we draw a random sample of 36 one-acre plots from the region, plant the new variety of soybean, and compute the sample mean yield per acre. the sample mean yield per acre is 53.4 bushels. carry out the test at the 0.01 level of significance. (you can assume that yields per acre are approximately normally distributed.) follow all steps clearly and write a clear conclusion. include all necessary conditions check and show all your working.

If we compare the p value and the significance level given
we see that
so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 48.8 at 1% of signficance.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Data given and notation
z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
2) State the null and alternative hypotheses.
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is higher than 48.8, the system of hypothesis would be:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
Since we assume that know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:
z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".
3) Calculate the statistic
We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:
4)P-value
Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:
5) Conclusion
If we compare the p value and the significance level given
we see that
so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 48.8 at 1% of signficance.

answer with explanation:
properties of numbers plotted on number line:
numbers on the right of number line is bigger.
the number that nicole wants to compare using number line
first plot these points on the number line, and real numbers on the right of number line is bigger than any real number on the left.
to plot , , on the number line, mark 3 lines between 1 and 2, equidistant from each other ,which we call and 2.
to plot, 1.5 on the number line, mark a line equidistant between 1 and 2.
you will find that, is on right of 1.5.so, is bigger than 1.5.
