A standardized test, designed to measure the mathematical skill level of seventh graders is said to have a mean score (µ) = 75 with a standard deviation (σ) = 10. As the principal of a private school, you're curious how seventh graders, in your school compare. Selecting a sample of 25 students from your school and administering the mathematical skill test, you discover a sample mean (X) of 79. Assume that you're working at the .05 level of significance.
