Inferential Statistics is concerned with making predictions or inferences about a population from

observation and analysis of a sample. After getting the results, it will be analyzed and generalize. The
analysis would be Bivariate analysis which means the examination of the two variables simultaneously.
Purpose of Bivariate Analysis: determine the empirical relationship between the two variables.

T-test, when the sample is small (n < 30)

Purpose of T-test: to determine the significant difference between two set of data (so bias will be
eliminated)

Two-tailed T-test: Is there significant difference between the healing time frame of Aloe vera and the
healing time frame of Tilapia skin on a skin burn?

Unpaired data: Because Aloe vera and Tilapia skin are two different things; results of one another do
not affect the other.

In our study: Aloe vera, applied in a burnt skin, allowed it to heal after 10 days. Is it significantly different
from the Tilapia skin which healed the burnt skin after 13 days?

H0 (null hypo): mean= 1

To get the standard deviation (e.g Aloe vera): After the 5 experiments on the rats using the Aloe vera as
a treatment, the results are 10 days, 12 days, 8 days, 6 days, & 14 days.

1. Get the mean (sum of all the days divided by how many days): 10
2. Find the deviation from the mean:
10 – 10= 0
12- 10= 2
8-10= -2
6- 10= -4
14-10= 4
3. Square the deviation differences
(0)2 = 0
(2)2 = 4
(-2)2 = 4
(-4)2 = 16
(4)2 = 16

4. Find the sum of the squares of the deviation from the mean:

0 + 4 + 4 + 16 + 16 = 40

5. Divided by the number of experiments done to get the variance:

40 / 5 = 8

6. To get the standard deviation, square root the 40:


6.3246 or 6. 32
