Question:

The value of t-test statistics used for testing $Ho : \mu =40$ from a sample of 16 observations with sample mean $(\overline{x})=50$ and sample standard deviation (S) = 20, is :

Options:

2

2.5

0.8

0.04

Correct Answer:

2

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 2

The t-test statistic is,

$t=\frac{\bar x-μ_0}{s/\sqrt{n}}$

$=\frac{50-40}{20/\sqrt{16}}=\frac{50-40}{5}=2$
