Question

You wish to test the following claim (HaHa) at a significance level of α=0.02.

      Ho:μ1=μ2
      Ha:μ1<μ2

You obtain the following two samples of data.

Sample #1 Sample #2
84.3 84.3 66.6 68.8
52.2 45.5 38.2 43.8
77 63.6 46.3 47.8

69.3 60.5 24.9 61
64 85.1 65.8 68.8
49.8 73.4 36.6 63.2
97.2 46.3 40.7 83.5
46.3 68.4 45.5 61
48.5 84.3 43.8 55.4
52.8 60.1 59.6 63.2
44.7 45.5

62.8 56.9 86.8 84.7
81.1 81.5 68.6 69.7
75.2 59.3 67.5 82.6
61.4 64.8 75.7 60.2
78.7 82.6 79.1 64.5
83.9 65.8 74.2 90.6

77.7 64 86.8 57.6
79.4 81.5 66.8  



What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)
test statistic = 

What is the p-value for this sample? For this calculation, use the degrees of freedom reported from the technology you are using. (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.)
p-value = 

The p-value is...

  • less than (or equal to) αα
  • greater than αα



This test statistic leads to a decision to...

  • reject the null
  • accept the null
  • fail to reject the null



As such, the final conclusion is that...

  • There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean.
  • There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean.
  • The sample data support the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean.
  • There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean.
