In: Statistics and Probability
You have a dataset of the average number of chirps per minute for a sample of 30 crickets. You find that the mean number of chirps per minute is 40 and that the number of chirps per minute has a standard deviation of 5 chirps. You want to test that the mean number of chirps per minute for a cricket is greater than 38 using a significance level of .05. What is the value of your test statistic? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Solution-
We have given that
Population mean = 38
Sample size = 30
Sample Mean = 40
Sample standard deviation = 5
Significance level = 0.05
Test Statistic = 2.19 ........(rounded to 2 decimals)
By above test result
Null hypothesis is rejected.
we have enough evidence to claim that mean number of chirps per minute for a cricket is greater than 38.
