A test statistic is a parameter used during a hypothesis test to determine whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis. There are 2 test statistics, the z-score and t-score. The main difference is that the t-score is used when sample size is not greater than 30. Therefore we will use the t-score in this case.

The formula for t-score is:

t-score = (x – μ<span>) / (s / sqrt n)               -----> equation 1</span>

Where,

x = sample mean = 10.1

μ = population mean = 9.7

s = sample standard deviation = 1.8

<span> n = sample size = 30</span>

Substituting the given values in equation 1:

t-score = (10.1 – 9.7) / (1.8 / sqrt(30))

t-score = 1.22

<span>Answer: The test statistic is 1.22.</span>
