Hypothesis Testing for Male students

The average Height student in Monroe College said to be 160 cm. To determine if this is true,
a random sample of 20 Male students is taken and resulted in an of 163,80 cm and S of
11.574 cm. Test the appropriate hypotheses at

= 0.05.

Hypothesis for our testing as following:

Null Hypothesis: The average Height student in Monroe College is 160 cm.
Alternate Hypothesis: The average Height student in Monroe College Different than 160 cm.
Hypothesis Testing :
H: = 160
Ha : 160

= 0.05
n = 20 ; df = 20 - 1= 19
Standard deviation S = 11.574. 2.5880
is unknown, so we need to use the t statistics. XX
X
Tstat=
Tstat= 1,4683
S / n
From T table we get the Critical Value (df = 19 and = 0.05) T = 1.729

Do not reject H: = 160 because of insufficient evidence to support H1.
