Excel Hint for finding critical values:
· Two tailed t test
· Left tailed t test or right tailed t test
1. A group of 8 students are asked to estimate the length of one minute without reference to any timers. The times they provided (in seconds) are given below:
    53
    67
    63
    55
    75
    58
    56
    62
Assuming the population is approximately normal and using a 0.05 significance level, test the claim that these provided times are indeed from a population with mean 60 seconds.
a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.
b) Calculate the test statistic (round it to 3 decimal places).
c) Find the critical value (rounditto3decimalplaces).
d) Make a statistical conclusion.Do the results indicate that students are reasonably good at estimating the length of one minute?
Solution 1 : Pop ~ Normal (60, 1)
a) Null Hypothesis H0: Mean of time length is 60 seconds i.e., μ = 60
Alternative Hypothesis H1: μ ≠ 60
b) Test Statistic : Since the sample size is small, so we use t test for difference of means.
Test Statistic :

c) Critical value : 23.752
d) Since the p value of the test statistic is less than 0.05 so we may reject H0 at 5% level of significance. Also the critical value t(0.05, 7) = 2.364 , which is less than the test statistic. Thus we cannot fix the sample mean at 60 seconds. It further indicates that the students results are reasonably not enough to estimate the length of one minute.
2. Aprofessorclaimsthatthemeanfinal mark forisgreaterthan65.Asampleof35 students shows the sample mean is 67 with standard deviation 15. Test the professor’s claim using a 0.05 significance level.
a) Statethenullandalternativehypotheses.
b) Calculatetheteststatistic(rounditto3decimalplaces).
c) FindtheP-value(rounditto3decimalplaces).
d) Makeaconclusionbasedonyouranswersinpartsb)andc).
e) ExplainwhatwouldconstituteaTypeIerrorinthiscontext.
f) ExplainwhatwouldconstituteaTypeIIerrorinthiscontext.
Solution 2 :
a) Null Hypothesis H0: μ > 65
Alternative Hypothesis H1: μ < 65
b) Test Statistic : Since the sample size is small, so we use t test for difference of means.
