Question

Recreational Time A researcher wishes to see if there is a difference between the mean number of hours per week that a family with no children participates in recreational activities and a family with children participates in recreational activities. She selects two random samples and the data are shown. Use μ1 for the mean number of families with no children. At α=0.10 , is there a difference between the means? Use the critical value method and tables.

	X	σ	n
No children	8.5	2.9	36
Children	10.5	2.7	36

(a) State the hypothesis and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis.

H0: ▼(Choose one)

H1: ▼(Choose one)

This hypothesis test is a ▼(Choose one) test.

(b)Find the critical value(s). Round the answer to 2 decimal places, if necessary. If there is more than one critical value, separate them with commas

Critical values:

(c)Compute the test value. Round the answer to at least 2
decimal places, if necessary.

d)Make the decision.

What's the null hypothesis?

Compute the P -value. Round the answer to four decimal places.

P-value=

(e)Summarize the results.

There is ▼(Choose one) that the mean number of hours per week that a family with no children participates in recreational activities and a family with children participates in recreational activities are different.
