a.Use the five steps of hypothesis testing.
b.Sketch the distributions involved.
c.Advanced topic: Figure the confidence limits for the 95% confidence interval.
d.Explain the logic of what you did to a person who understands hypothesis testing for studies in which the sample consists of a single individual but is unfamiliar with hypothesis testing involving a sample of more than one individual.Be sure your explanation includes a discussion of the distribution of means-what it is,the logic of how it is figured-and its role in the overall hypothesis testing process.Advanced topic: Explain the logic and computation of the confidence intervals.
