The mean SAT score in mathematics is 508 . The founders of a nationwide SAT preparation course claim that graduates of the course score higher, on average, than the national mean. Suppose that the founders of the course want to carry out a hypothesis test to see if their claim has merit. State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H1 that they would use.
Ho: mean = 508
H1: mean (not equal to) 508
