Microsoft Excel was used on a set of data involving the number of parasites found in a random sample of 46 Blue Tiger butterflies captured in Kakadu National Park.A biologist wants to know if the mean number of parasites per butterfly is greater than 20.She will make her decision using a test with a level of significance of 0.10.The following information was extracted from the Microsoft Excel output for the sample of 46 butterflies:
$n = 46 ;$ Arithmetic Mean = 28.00; Standard Deviation = 25.92; Standard Error = 3.82; Null Hypothesis: $H _ { 0 } : \mu \leq 20.000 ; \alpha = 0.10 ; \mathrm { df } = 45 ; T$ Test Statistic = 2.09;
One-Tailed Test Upper Critical Value $= 1.3006 ; p$ -value $= 0.021 ;$ Decision $=$ Reject.
-Referring to Instruction 9-1,the power of the test is ________ if the mean number of parasites per butterfly on Blue Tiger butterflies in Kakadu National Park is 30 using a 0.1 level of significance and assuming that the population standard deviation is 25.92.
