Consider the accompanying data on breaking load (kg/25 mm width) for various fabrics in both an unabraded condition and an abraded condition. Use the paired t test to test H0: μD = 0 versus Ha: μD > 0 at significance level 0.01. (Use μD = μU − μA.)
Fabric | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | |
U | 36.5 | 55.0 | 51.3 | 38.5 | 43.2 | 48.8 | 25.6 | 49.8 |
A | 28.5 | 20.0 | 46.0 | 34.5 | 36.5 | 52.5 | 26.5 | 46.5 |
Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)
