In a study of 110 women and 116 men, it was found that mean body temperature for women was 97.690 F and mean body temperature for men was 97.450 F. Assume that the populations are independent, and the standard deviations were found to to be 0.89o F for women, and 0.660 F for men. Use an α = 0.05 significance level to test the claim that woman and men have different mean body temperatures.
For full credit your hypothesis test must include: the claim, the null and alternate hypothesis, your test statistic and corresponding p-value, your decision, and the interpretation of your decision as it relates to the claim. It is acceptable to use technology to calculate the test statistic and the p-value here.
The sample mean and standard deviation from a random sample of 30 observations from a normal population were computed as x¯=31x¯=31 and s = 9. Calculate the t statistic of the test required to determine whether there is enough evidence to infer at the 3% significance level that the population mean is greater than 28.
Test Statistic =
A test was made of H = H versus H < lly The sample means were
X=14 and 6, the sample standard deviations were 6 and -7. and
the sample sizes were 16 and n 19
Compute the value of the test statistic.
