Question

Assume that the paired data came from a population that is normally distributed. Using a 0.05 significance level find d sd the t test statistic and the critical values to test the claim that ,-0 17 13 10 15 12 4 12 --15 (Round to three decimal plac d=|-1.5 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) d 3.505 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) s = 3.505 (Round to three decimal places as needed t = -1.210| (Round to three decimal places as needed.) 1210 (Round to three decimal places as needed) 4,2 = ± (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

a)

Let ud = u2 - u1.              
Formulating the null and alternative hypotheses,              
              
Ho:   ud   =   0  
Ha:   ud   =/   0  
At level of significance =    0.05          
As we can see, this is a    two   tailed test.      
Calculating the mean of the differences (third column):              
              
dbar =    1.5   [ANSWER]

********************************************      
              
Calculating the standard deviation of the differences (third column):              
              
s =    2.891995222  
              
Thus, the standard error of the difference is sD = s/sqrt(n):              
              
sD =    1.022474716   [ANSWER, STANDARD ERROR OF THE DIFFERENCE]

Do you mean sd as the standard error or the standard deviation of the differences? If it is the standard deviation, please use the previous value, 2.891995222.

**********************************************      
              
              
As t = [dbar - uD]/sD, where uD = the hypothesized difference =    0   , then      
              
t =    1.467028941   [ANSWER, T VALUE]

******************************************      
              
As df = n - 1 =    7          
              
Then the critical value of t is, by using table or technology, [as this is a two tailed 0.05 level test at df = 7]              
              
tcrit =    +/-   2.364624252   [ANSWER]
