I am not going to give you the answer, but I am going to tell you how to do it. You first put 18 over 1, and multiply that by one half. (You multiply across.)
Answer: 19
Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding the left side gives

which gives two solutions,

and

. But if

, then

, but this number isn't real, so

is an extraneous solution. Meanwhile if

, you get

, so this solution is correct.
"Potential solutions" might refer to both possibilities, but there is only one actual (real) solution.

- Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign (≤, ≥) from both sides of the inequality:

- Divide both sides by
:
- Remember to flip the inequality sign:
- Subtract
from both sides:

The t-value measures the size of the difference relative to the variation in your sample data. Put another way, T is simply the calculated difference represented in units of standard error. The greater the magnitude of T, the greater the evidence against the null hypothesis.
