Score:	Week 2	Testing means - T-tests								Q3
		In questions 2 and 3, be sure to include the null and alternate hypotheses you will be testing.						Ho	Female	Male	Female
		In the first 3 questions use alpha = 0.05 in making your decisions on rejecting or not rejecting the null hypothesis.						45	34	1.017	1.096

<1 point>	1	Below are 2 one-sample t-tests comparing male and female average salaries to the overall sample mean.						45	23	1.157	1.000
		(Note: a one-sample t-test in Excel can be performed by selecting the 2-sample unequal variance t-test and making the second variable = Ho value -- see column S)						45	22	0.979	0.956
		Based on our sample, how do you interpret the results and what do these results suggest about the population means for male and female average salaries?						45	23	1.134	1.000

	Interpretation:




<1 point>	2	Based on our sample data set, perform a 2-sample t-test to see if the population male and female average salaries could be equal to each other.
