Determine

 

I) the alternative hypothesis to be tested

 

II) the sample pooled-variances

 

III) the test statistic

 

III) The conclusion:

 

 

 

  

 

a) Since t=0.036 is less than t subscript 0.025 comma 12 end subscript equals 2.110, we then fail to reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance and conclude that the average percentage of aluminium oxide at the two sites are different.

 

 

 

   

 

b) Since t=0.036 is greater than t subscript 0.025 comma 12 end subscript equals 2.110 , we then fail to reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance and conclude that the average percentage of aluminium oxide at the two sites are not different.

 

 

 

   

 

c) Since t=0.036 is less than t subscript 0.025 comma 12 end subscript equals 2.110 , we then reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance and conclude that the average percentage of aluminium oxide at the two sites are not different.

 

 

 

   

 

d) Since t=0.036 is less than t subscript 0.025 comma 12 end subscript equals 2.110 , we then fail to reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance and conclude that the average percentage of aluminium oxide at the two sites are not different.

An article in Sowetan involved an analysis of samples
of Soweto pottery, found at different sites in the
Craddle of humankind. The samples were analysed to
determine their chemical composition
and the
percentage of aluminum oxide in each of 9 and 10
samples at two sites shown in the table below.
