1.
Ho: The average life span today is not greater than 72 years.
Ha: The average life span today is greater than 72 years.
0.05
2.
3. t-test (one-tailed)
4. df=n-1
df=100-1=99
t₁ = 1.66 Tabular value
5. Computation using the formula for sample mean compared with population mean
tc =
Substitute the given values in the formula
tc
(x-μ)√n
S
=
F = 69
= 72
μ
n = 100
S = 8.9
HOW
(69-72)√/100
8.9
tc = -3.37
6. Decision: Since t computed value of -3.37 is less than tabular value of 1.66.
Therefore, we reject our null hypothesis (Ho).
7. Formulate conclusion: The average life span today is greater than 72 years.
