Question 405100
A real estate agent claims that the average price of a home sold in Bevear County, Pennsylvania, is $60,000. A random sample of 36 homes sold in the county is selected. Is there enough evidence to reject the agent's claim at a=0.05? Assuming std = $76,025 
I need to 
a. State the hypotheses and identify the claim
b. Find the critical value(s)
c. Compute the test value
d. Make a decision
e. Summarize the results 
My answer that I got was 
H0: = 60,000
Ha: ≠60,000
test statistic: t = (82495-60000)/[76024/sqrt(36)] = -1.78
Comment: I guess you are saying the sample mean was $82495.
-------
p-value is 2*P(t < -1.78 when df=35) = 2*0.4188 = 0.0838
Note: You doube the probability that t is less that -1.78
because your test is a two-tail test.
--- 
Answer: Since the p-value is greater than 5%, fail to
Reject the null hypothesis.
