Question

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 P-value method and tables.

(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 3decimal places, if necessary. If there ismore than one critical value,

Critical values:

(c)Compute the test value. Round the answer to at least 3
decimal places, if necessary.

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

P-value=

(d)Make the decision.

What's the null hypothesis?

(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.
