Question

Determine the critical values for the following tests of the population mean with an unknown population standard deviation. The analysis is based on 15 observations drawn from a normally distributed population at a 1% level of significance. Use Table 2. Click here to find Table 2 or select the table from D2L. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.

a. Ho: 50 versus HA: > 50

b. Ho: = 9.8 versus HA: 9.8

c. Ho: 3.2 versus HA: < 3.2

d. Ho: = 15 versus HA: 15

Explanation / Answer

a)
Critical Value
The Value of |t | with n-1 = 14 d.f, right tailed is 2.624

b)
Critical Value
The Value of |t | with n-1 = 14 d.f, two tailed is 2.977

c)
Critical Value
The Value of |t | with n-1 = 14 d.f, left tailed is -2.624

d)
Critical Value
The Value of |t | with n-1 = 14 d.f, two tailed is 2.977
