A random sample of 9 independent normal observations has mean 32 and unbiased sample standard deviation 3. Test \(H_0:\mu=29\) against an increase; the population variance is unknown.

Use a 5% significance level for a written conclusion. A distribution calculator may be used for numerical p-values.

Find the observed t statistic.

Enter one number or fraction. Use at least six decimal places when needed; a distribution calculator may be used for probabilities.
