Math Problem Statement
the claim is that for 12 AM body temperatures, the mean is less than 98.6 F. the sample size is n = 6 and the test statisitic is t = -2.255. find the P-value for the hypothesis test described based on the result, what is the final conclusion? use a significance level of a = 0.05. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
