Answer: the t-test statistic is - 1.77
Step-by-step explanation:
For the null hypothesis,
H 0: μ = 2600
For the alternative hypothesis,
H a: μ ≠ 2600
This is a two tailed test
Since no population standard deviation is given, the distribution is a student's t.
Since n = 50,
Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 50 - 1 = 49
t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)
Where
x = sample mean = $2450
µ = population mean = $2600
s = samples standard deviation = $600
Therefore,
t = (2450 - 2600)/(600/√50) = - 1.77
Yes, that's true PROVIDED your test scores are normally distributed.
If they are, then more than 99% of your test scores are within three
standard deviations of the mean.
You told us that 3-sigma = 5.4 . So less than one score out of every
hundred tests you take is lower than 86.6 or higher than 97.4 .
You are remarkably consistent, so I guess Jupiter must have been
in its ascendancy next door to the house of Andromeda about an
hour before you were born, or some such nonsense.
There are 12 sections
here is how to do it:
2 8
_ = _
3 x
so you cross multiply
8 x 3 = 2x
24=2x
12=x
