QUESTION:

SATM scores of California high school students based on an SRS of 500 students. The hypotheses are H0: m 475 Ha: m 475 Assume that the population standard deviation is s 100. The test rejects H0 at the 1% level of significance when z 2.326, where z x 475 100 1500 Is this test sufficiently sensitive to usually detect an increase of 10 points in the population mean SATM score? Answer this question by calculating the power of the test to detect the alternative m 485. 6.
