SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question.
Perform the indicated sign test. Be sure to do the following: Identify the claim mathematically and state the null and
alternative hypotheses. Determine the critical value and find the test statistic. Decide whether to reject or fail to reject
the null hypothesis and interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
