Answer:

-4.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Population mean (pm) = 8 hours

Sample mean (sm) = 6.9 hours

Number of observations (n) = 101 students

Sample standard deviation (sd) = 2.5

Using the t-statistic formula :

[(sm - pm) / (sd/√n)]

Hence,

[(6.9 - 8) / (2.5/√101)]

[(-1.1) / (2.5/10.05)]

-1.1 / 0.2487562

= −4.422

The test statistic = - 4.42 to the nearest hundredth.
