Use Appendix B5 to locate the value of t under the following
Use Appendix B.5 to locate the value of t under the following conditions. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
| a. | The sample size is 12 and the level of confidence is 95%. |
Solution
(a) The degree of freedom =n-1=12-1=11
Given a=1-0.95=0.05, t(0.025, df=11) =2.201 (from student t table)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) The degree of freedom =n-1=20-1=19
Given a=1-0.9=0.1, t(0.05, df=19) =1.729 (from student t table)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(c)The degree of freedom =n-1= 8-1=7
Given a=1-0.99=0.01, t(0.005, df=7) =3.499 (from student t table)
