Question

You wish to test the claim that the first population mean is not equal to the second population mean at a significance level of α=0.02

.     

Ho:μ1=μ2


 Ha:μ1≠μ2

 

You obtain the following two samples of data.

Sample #1 Sample #2
67.1
64.2
32.7
49.0
63.8
54.8
63.5
54.1
65.6
54.8
40.5
58.7
39.4
43.1
72.5
73.1
70.2
71.2

76.5

 

  1. What is the test statistic for this sample?

    test statistic = Round to 3 decimal places.

  2. What is the p-value for this sample?

    p-value = Use Technology Round to 4 decimal places.

  3. The p-value is...
    • less than (or equal to) α

 

  •  
  • greater than α
    •  


  • This test statistic leads to a decision to...
    • reject the null
    • accept the null
    • fail to reject the null


  • As such, the final conclusion is that...
    • There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is not equal to the second population mean.
    • There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is not equal to the second population mean.
    • The sample data support the claim that the first population mean is not equal to the second population mean.
    • There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the first population mean is not equal to the second population mean.
