Question
  1. Use for questions 11-16 :To test the belief that sons are taller than their fathers, a student randomly selects 8 fathers who have adult male children.  Both heights are recorded in inches and the data follows.  Is there evidence to conclude that sons are taller than their fathers.  Test at the 5% level of significance.

    Family Father's Height Son's Height       d = Father minus Son
    1 70.3 74.1  
    2 67.1 69.2  
    3 70.9 66.9  
    4 72.8 68.9  
    5 70.4 70.2  
    6 70.1 69.3  
    7 68.5 69.8  
    8 70.3 71.9
