This is a statistics and probability question.
I've been trying to figure this out for hours but I'm getting nowhere:
I have to test the hypothesis that the true average value of a sample is 6.2. I will reject the null hypothesis if with 95% confidence if the true average value is indeed 6.2 or reject the null hypothesis if the true average is 6.0.
I need to calculate the number of samples needed to test the hypothesis with the required accuracy, as well as the cut-off level, assuming a standard deviation of 0.4.
I have never done a problem where average value or sample size wasn't given, any help on how to get started would be greatly appreciated
