Use the Student's t distribution to find tc for a 0.95 confidence level when the sample is 21. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Solution:
We have to use the Student's t distribution to find tc for a 0.95 confidence level when the sample is 21.
for c = 0.95, two tail area = 1 - c = 1 -0.95 = 0.05
df = degrees of freedom = n - 1= 21 - 1 = 20
So look in t table for df = 20 and two tail area = 0.05 and find corresponding t critical value.
From above t table , we get: t = 2.086
Thus tc = 2.086
