16.22 Boise $ 12.60 CaldwellExplanation / Answer
1)
Ho: there is no significant difference in the average play between Boise and the surrounding cities.
H1: the average play rate in Boise is more as compared to the surrounding cities.
2)
Level of significance = 0.05
3)
I will use T test for independent samples with unequal variances.
I use this test as The two groups of Boise and other cities are independent of each other.
4)
Df=
(s1^2/n1 + s2^2/n2)^2/((s1^2/n1)^2/(n1-1) + (s2^2/n2)^2/(n2-1))
(0.1686+0.0379)^2/(0.1686^2/(72-1) + 0.0379^2/(349-1))
84
Critical value, t(a, df) =t(0.05,84) =abs(t.INV(0.05,84)) = 1.663
The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic is greater than the critical value.
5)
T =
= (Xbar1-Xbar2)/sqrt(s1^2/n1 + s2^2/n2)
= (16.0025-15.2980515759312)/sqrt(0.1686+0.0379)
1.5502
6)
With t(84) = 1.5502 < t(0.05,84),I fail to reject the null hypothesis. Hence I conclude that there is no significant difference in the average play between Boise and the surrounding cities.
