The null hypothesis that the average profit per customer does not exceed $25 cannot be rejected. The null hypothesis that the average profit per customer exceeds $25 is rejected. Question 7. 7. In most practical applications, the population standard deviation will not be known but it is estimated from the ________. (Points : 1)  population sample test statistic t-distribution Question 8. 8.
