We wish to know if these data provide sufficient evidence to allow us to conclude that the treatment is effective in causing weight reduction in obese women at . Solve using five step critical - value approach.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ho: Change is 0
Ha: Change is not 0
alpha=0.05 p{reject Ho|Ho true}
test is a paired t (0.975, df=9) critical value |t| > 2.262
values
mean is 4
s=3.33
t=difference/s/sqrt(n)
=4/3.333/sqrt(10)
=3.798
Reject Ho; the mean difference is positive, not 0, and there is a significant difference in the treatment to cause weight loss. p-value=0.004.
