she randomly surveys 83 students and collects data on the number of hours they slept last night. she computes the sample mean to be 6.5 hours with a standard deviation of 1.1 hours. what is the sample size? enter just that number as answer for this question.



Answer :

The sample size of the given question is 83  and the t-test value is -0.6578.

Hypotheses:

H0 : Ha:  ц < 7.

Sample mean = 6.5

SD = 1.1

n = 83

ц =7

Null hypothesis:   ц >= 7

Alternative hypothesis:    ц < 7

Since we don't know the population deviation, is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by

t = (mean - ц )/ ц \sqrt{n}

t-test is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value.    

t =  -0.5 / 0.76

  = -0.6578
