A reseаrcher is interested in the time it tаkes а cоmmоn drug tо become effective. She administers a drug treatment to a sample of participants (N=64) selected from a population with an average of  μ = 50 minutes-to-effectiveness and σ = 2 minutes. The researcher obtains a sample mean of ȳ = 49.5 minutes-to-effectiveness. The researcher is testing the research hypothesis that H1 = ȳ < μ. It looks like she's testing to see if there sample mean is less than the population mean, which is known to her. So this is a "Single sample left-hand hypothesis test (z-test)".  Calculate the obtained Z-statistic and make a decision with respect to the null hypothesis.
