a) Choose the appropriate hypotheses. Assume d = company assessed value – employee assessed value.
 

  • H0μd = 0 versus H1μd ≠ 0.
  • H0μd ≠ 0 versus H1μd = 0.


 
(b) State the decision rule for .01 level of significance. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places. A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign.)
 
Reject the null hypothesis if tcalc <  or tcalc >  .
 
(c-1)
 Find the test statistic tcalc(Round your answer to 2 decimal places. A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign.)
