Can you please type out the answer
A random sample of n = 12 individuals is selected from a
population with µ = 70, and a treatment is administered to each
individual in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found
to be M = 74.5 with SS = 297. Is there evidence to indicate that
your sample is significantly different from the population using
α=.05? calculate the effect size for your results.
(i)
H0:Null Hypothesis: = 70 ( our sample is not significantly different from the population )
HA: Alternative Hypothesis: 70 ( our sample is significantly different from the population ) (Claim)
n = 12
= 74.5
= 0.05
df = 12 -1 = 11
From Table, critical values of t = 2.201
Test Statistic is given by:
Since calculated value of t = 3.00 is greater than critical value of t = 2.201, the difference is significant. Reject null hypothesis.
Conclusion:
The data support the claim that our sample is significantly
different from the population.
(ii)
the effect size for our results is got as follows:
So,
Answer is:
0.8660
