The effectiveness of a new bug repellent is tested on subjects for a 10 hour period. (Assume normally distributed population.) Based on the number and location of the bug bites, the percentage of surface area exposed protected from bites was calculated for each of the subjects. The results were as follows:

,

The new repellent is considered effective if it provides a percent repellency of at least . Using , construct a hypothesis test with null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis to determine whether the mean repellency of the new bug repellent is greater than by computing the following:

(a) the degree of freedom

(b) the critical value

(c) the test statistics

The final conclusion is
