Null hypotheses: μd = 0 cm
Alternative hypotheses: μd > 0 cm
Use the sample data with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that for the population of heights for presidents and their main opponents, the differences have a mean greater than 0 cm.
In this example, μd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the president's height minus their main opponent's height.
a.) Identify the test statistic.
b.) Identify the p-value.
c.) Construct a confidence interval with 0.05 significance level.
