An Exercise Science instructor at IVC was interested in comparing the resting pulse rates of students who exercise regularly and the pulse rates of those who do not exercise regularly. Independent simple random samples of 16 students who do not exercise regularly and 12 students who exercise regularly were selected, and the resting pulse rates (in beats per minute) were recorded. The summary statistics are presented in the table below. Is there compelling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly? Use a significance value of 0.05.    Two-Sample T-Test Sample N Mean Standard Deviation Do Not Exercise Regularly  16 75 9 Exercise Regularly 12 69 11  Only missing the conclusion  Null Hypothesis, H=.  h1=h2   Alternative Hypothesis, H1. =h1>h2   Test Statistic, t= 1.54   P-value= 0.0691   Significance level= 0.05   Conclusion= (A)=there is compeling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly   (B)there is not compeling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly

An Exercise Science instructor at IVC was interested in comparing the resting pulse rates of students who exercise regularly and the pulse rates of those who do not exercise regularly. Independent simple random samples of 16 students who do not exercise regularly and 12 students who exercise regularly were selected, and the resting pulse rates (in beats per minute) were recorded. The summary statistics are presented in the table below. Is there compelling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly? Use a significance value of 0.05. 

 
Two-Sample T-Test
Sample N Mean Standard Deviation
Do Not Exercise Regularly  16 75 9
Exercise Regularly 12 69 11

 Only missing the conclusion 

Null Hypothesis, H=.  h1=h2
 
Alternative Hypothesis, H1. =h1>h2
 
Test Statistic, t= 1.54
 
P-value= 0.0691
 
Significance level= 0.05
 
Conclusion= (A)=there is compeling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly
 
(B)there is not compeling statistical evidence that the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly is greater than the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly
