Given the following samples, test the hypothesis, $\mathrm{H}_{0}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2} \leq 3$, versus hypothesis, $\mathrm{H}_{1}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2}>3$ at a $10 \%$ level of significance. Sample $1: 51,42,49,55,46,63,56,58,47,39,47$ Sample 2: $38,49,45,29,31,35$
Consider the following hypotheses: H0: μ=8 against H1: μ≠8. The population is normally distributed. A random sample produces the following observations: 6 9 8 7 7 11 10 The test statistic at the 5% level of significance is equal to a. 8.286 b. 0.420 c. 2.365 d. 2.447 e. 0.680

Using the information below, conduct a hypothesis test using the 4-step approach: H0: μ1 - μ2 = 0 Ha: μ1 - μ2 < 0 α = 0.01 Sample 1: n1 = 8 x1 = 24.56 s^2 1 = 12.4 Sample 2: n2 = 11 x2 = 26.42 s^2 2 = 15.8 Step 1 - State the hypothesis (already done for you...see above). Will this be a one-tailed or a two-tailed test? Step 2 - Set the criteria for a decision. What is your df? Step 3 - Compute the test statistic. Step 4 - Make a decision.
