Choose the correct option based on the problem information.

Use a significance level of α = 0.01 to test the claim that μ > 2.85. The sample data consist of 9 scores for which = 3.1 and s = 0.6. Identify the correct null and alternative hypotheses.


A. H0: μ = 2.85. H1: μ > 2.85.


B. H0: μ ≥ 2.85. H1: μ < 2.85.


C. H0: μ > 2.85. H1: μ ≤ 2.85.


D. H0: μ ≠ 2.85. H1: μ = 2.85.
