Use hypothesis testing procedures to determine if there is a statistically significant gender difference in internet use. Be certain to interpret the results. Use alpha=0.01 and 2 tail.
\n" ); document.write( "Men: mean: 8.8, sd: 11.0, n: 793
\n" ); document.write( "Women: mean: 6.3, sd: 9.9, n: 908
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Ho: umen-uwomen = 0
\n" ); document.write( "Ha: umen-uwomen is not zero
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "I ran a 2-Sample Ttest and got the following:
\n" ); document.write( "test statistic: t = 4.898
\n" ); document.write( "p-value = 0.0000010659..
\n" ); document.write( "df = (794+907) = 1701
\n" ); document.write( "=======
\n" ); document.write( "Conclusion: Since the p-value is less than 1%, reject Ho.
\n" ); document.write( "There is a gender difference in internet use.
