Two sided t-test ( d )
0.245782 ( c )
Since P-value is too large we cannot conclude that the students’ weight are different for these two schools. ( c )
The test is inconclusive; thus we cannot claim that the average weights are different. ( b )

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Test performed is a Two sided test and this because we are trying to determine the mean difference between two groups irrespective of their direction

<u>2) Determine the P-value ( we will use a data-data analysis approach on excel data sheet while assuming Unequal variances )</u>

yes No

Mean 94.47059 89.76471

Variance 173.2647 95.19118

Observations 17 17

df 30

t Stat 1.184211

P(T<=t) one-tail 0.122814

t Critical one-tail 1.697261

P(T<=t) two-tail 0.245782

Hence The p-value = 0.245782

3) Since P-value is too large we cannot conclude that the students’ weight are different for these two schools.

4) The test is inconclusive; thus we cannot claim that the average weights are different.
