Kindly provide the following information regarding your data analysis.

  1. Write the null and alternative hypothesis.
  2. Determine the calculated value of the test statistic with equal variances assumption.         
  3. Calculate the tabulated value (critical value) of the test statistic at 0.05 level of significance.
  4. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the average sales of the two types of biscuits assuming that the variances are equal.
  5. “On average, sales of double chocolate biscuit is 500 units more than tea time biscuits”. Comments in the light of part “d” result.

With reference to question # 4, perform the analysis for the verification of the assumption and answer the questions given below:

 

  1. Write the name of statistical technique used for analysis
  2. “For the comparing the two variances, statistician study ratio of two variances while when comparing the two means, study the difference of two mean.” Give the logical reason, why we study the ratio of two variances and why not the difference of two variances.
  3. Write the calculated value of test statistics
  4. Write the two tabulated value of test statistics.
  5. Comments about the assumption taken in question # 4, in the light of your analysis.
