Q1) Mean score of adult men on psychological test that measures "masculine stereotypes" is 4.88. A researcher studying hotel managers suspects that successful managers score higher than adult men in general. A random sample of 48 managers of large hotels has mean  X‾= 5.91. The null hypothesis for the researcher's test is
