Problem 1: A coach claims that all players can run more than 1.5 miles. A random sample of 17 players finds that they can run an average of 1.7 miles with a standard deviation of 0.6 miles. Is there enough evidence to support the claim at α of 0.01? Assume the population is normally distributed.
Option 1: Yes, since p of 0.094 is less than 0.01, reject the null. Claim is null, so is supported
Option 2: No, since p of 0.094 is less than 0.01, reject the null. Claim is alternative, so is not supported
Option 3: Yes, since p of 0.094 is greater than 0.01, reject the null. Claim is alternative, so is supported
Option 4: No, since p of 0.094 is greater than 0.01, fail to reject the null. Claim is alternative, so is not supported
