 Please number the response thank you

In a study of marital satisfaction, a random
sample of 12 couples married for between
five and fifteen years was obtained. Each
couple was interviewed by the researcher and
rated on a Marital Cohesion (MC) scale.

A. What is the mean of Marital Cohesion?
1/2
B. What is the standard deviation of Scores for
hypothesis testing? (Round to the nearest
hundredths)
C. Is there a significant difference between
the sample mean of scores and the
population mean of 15? Carry out all 9 steps
of the hypothesis testing.

Summary of the 9 Steps for Hypothesis Testing
1. Null and alternative hypothesis.
2. Two-tailed test.
3. Select a significant level alpha.
4. Determine T test OR Z test.
5. Terit OR Zerit (Draw a graph)
6. Calculate Tobt or Zobt.
7. Check whether the observed value (obt) falls in the critical
region.
8. Reject or Fail to Reject Null Hypothesis.
9. Therefore, there isa statisticallysignificantdifference
between the sample mean and the population mean OR
there is no significant difference between the two means.
