Round your answers to three decimal places t0 tn1 The null
Round your answers to three decimal places.
| t0 = |
| t,n-1 = |
| The null hypothesis |
Solution
Formulating the null and alternative hypotheses,
Ho: u <= 1
Ha: u > 1
As we can see, this is a right tailed test.
Getting the test statistic, as
X = sample mean = 1.13
uo = hypothesized mean = 1
n = sample size = 15
s = standard deviation = 0.315
Thus, t0 = (X - uo) * sqrt(n) / s = 1.598374079 [ANSWER, t0]
********************************
Thus, getting the critical t, as alpha = 0.01,
df = n - 1 = 14
tcrit = 2.624494068 [ANSWER]
************************************
As t0 < 2.6244, we FAIL TO REJECT THE NULL HYPOTHESIS. [Ho WILL NOT be rejected.]
