Question

a. Which of the two excel outputs above is the correct result of the data?
b. What is the appropriate set of hypotheses for this test?
c. From the given results above, which test is appropriate to test the significant difference between the heat-producing capacities of the coal from the mines?
d. What is the t- critical value?
e. What is the p-value?
f. At α=0.05, what is the correct decision?

Description:
The following are measurements of the heat-producing capacity (in millions of calories per fon) of random samples of five specimens each of
coal from two mines:
Mine 1:
8380 8210 8360 7840 7910
Mine 2:
7540 7720 7750 8100 7690
Test at 5% level of significance if there is a significant difference in their heat-producing capacity.
Below are the EXCEL outputs of the data at a 95% confidence level:
