Compare 529 PlansNull hypothesis problem giving me problems, need help!?

I'm having probelms trying to solve this problem. Please, if anyone can help me it would be great. Thank you in advance, any help would be great, thanks!

Here's the problem:

The situation is as follows:
"A machine that produces metal rods used in an automobile suspension system is tested to ensure that the average diameter of the rods it produces do not exceed 8.20mm. A random sample of 15 rods is selected, and the diameter (in mm) is measured for each stem. The data obtained are presented below. "

8.24 8.23 8.20 8.21 8.20 8.28 8.23 8.26 8.24 8.25 8.19 8.25 8.26 8.23 8.24

You can use any statistical software to answer the following questions:


State:

Does the data provide sufficient evidence that the average stem diameter exceeds 8.20 mm using a significance level of 0.05? Please use the four-step process.

Map:

* Indicate name of the appropriate test procedure (eg pairs t test) (1 pt)
* Describe the parameter measured and the population of interest in the context of the problem (2 pts)
* State null and alternative hypotheses (2 pts)
* State level of importance (1 pt)


Solve:

* Plot data and describe the shape of your yard (You really need to plot your data by hand on your paper.) (1 pt)
* List and verify the conditions of inference (2 pts)
* Give the value (s) Statistics Sample (s) (1 pt)
* State the value of a statistical test (Please show your calculations.) As the P-value. (2 pts)


Conclude:

Answer the question posed by the problem or the study in context. Be sure to include the three parts of a conclusion (3 pts):

* Compare with P-value α
* Indicate if you "reject" or "does not reject H0"
* State concluded in its context.

State:

Calculate a confidence interval 95% to estimate the true mean diameter of these metal rods.

Map:

* Indicate name of the appropriate estimation procedure (eg pairs t test) (1 pt)
* Describe the parameters that we estimated (1 pt)
* Level of confidence of the State (1 pt)


Solve:

* You have already traced the data and verify the conditions in Part 1, so that you do not do it again here.
* Reaffirmation of the value (s) of the statistical sample (s) (1 pt)
* Calculate the confidence interval (1pt)


Conclude:

Interpret your confidence interval in context (3 pts)

Thank you

Whoa! Buddy! This is not the kind of question you ask on Yahoo! Answers. I am taking statistics right now and I'm in Grade 11. We find the nullity and the alternative hypothesis, but that's all. We do not as much as you are with him. I thought, "Hey, let me answer his question, but when I saw your Q, I was like, NVM! You probably do not care, but I felt like telling you anyway. :)
