Because of shortages in production of crude oil, it is believed that there has been a significant INCREASE in the average price. In order to test this belief, we randomly selected a sample of 36 of the company's gas stations and determined that the average price for the stations in the sample was 1.10 . Assume that the standard deviation of the population () is 0.12.
 a. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
  b. Test the claim at  = .05.
