Answer:

Lyrics d   null hypothesis              μ₀ ≥ 85

               alternative hypothesis  Hₐ < 85  

Step-by-step explanation:

A student believes means she thinks the average (μ₀ ) is always bigger or at least 85

In mathematics terms that is she believes μ₀ ≥ 85

Therefore the alternative hypothesis need to be μ₀ < 85

So the test hypothesis should be:

H₀                null hypothesis  ⇒         μ₀ ≥ 85

Hₐ    alternative hypothesis              μ₀  < 85
