9. 2 – Using the information below, conduct a hypothesis test using the 4-step approach:

H0:

9.1-Using the information below, conduct a hypothesis test using the four-step approach

H0: μ1 – μ2 = 0 Ha: μ1 – μ2 < 0 α = .01

Sample 1

Sample 2

n1 = 8

n2 = 11

x1 = 24.56

x2 = 26.42

s21 = 12.4

s22 = 15.8

Step 1 – State the hypothesis (already done for you…see above). Will this be a one-tailed or a two-tailed test?

This Test will be one tailed

Step 2 – Set the criteria for a decision. What is your df?

df =(n1-1) +(n2-1)

= (8-1) +(11-1)

= (7) +(10)

=17

If t is less than -1.05, or greater than 1.05, reject the null hypothesis

Step 3 – Compute the test statistic.

Step 4 – Make a decision.

We reject H0

d = -7.11 Sd=6.45

sd = 6.45

Step 1 – State the hypothesis (already done for you…see above). Will this be a one-tailed or a two-tailed test?

This test will be one tailed.

Step 2 – Set the criteria for a decision. What is your df?

df = (n-1)

= 9-1

= 8

If t is less than -3.31, or greater than 3.31, reject the null hypothesis

Step 3 – Compute the test statistic.

Step 4 – Make a decision.

We reject H0

Sample A

Sample B

n1 = 21

n2 = 21

x1 = 118 s21 = 23.9

x2 = 113 s22 = 21.6

Step 1 – State the hypothesis (already done for you…see above). Will this be a one-tailed or a two-tailed test?

This is a two-tailored test.

Step 2 – Set the criteria for a decision. What is your df?

Df=(n1-1) +(n2-1)

= (8-1) +(11-1)

=7+10

=17

If t is less than -3.397, or greater than 3.397, reject the null hypothesis

Step 3 – Compute the test statistic.

Step 4 – Make a decision.

We fail to reject H0

This test will two tailed

Step 2 – Set the criteria for a decision. What is your df?

d f= (n-1)

= (13-1)

=12

If t is less than -2.62, reject H0

Step 3 – Compute the test statistic.

Step 4 – Make a decision.
