C = -2.602

Solutions

Expert Solution

Solution:

Given:

df = 14

P( X < C )= 0.01

We have to find value of C using t distribution.

P( X < C )= 0.01 that means, area below C is 0.01

thus this C value is in left tail , thus C value would be negative.

Look in t table for df = 14 and one tail ( left tail) area = 0.01

C = 2.624

but since this is in left tail, so C value would be negative

that is:

C = -2.624

Thus correct answer is:

C = -2.624

We can use Excel command also:

=T.INV(probability , df)

=T.INV(0.01,14)

=-2.624

Thus C = -2.624
