STEP 1:

NULL HYPOTHESIS:

Average School Life Expectancy(Years) are 10 Years

ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS:

Average School Expectancy(Years) are not 10 Years

STEP 4:

CRITICAL REGION:

Ttab= T0.05 =1.729

STEP 5:

REJECTION RULE:

Reject Ho if Tcal > Ttab

STEP 6:

Tcal=0.677 and Ttab=1.729

Conclusion: The Table value is greater than calculated value so null hypothesis is rejected. The test is
significant. Here Alternative hypothesis is accepted which means the average school expectancy
(years) are not 10.

P value and statistical significance:

The two-tailed P value equals 0.0112
By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be statistically significant.
Confidence interval:
The hypothetical mean is 12.000000
The actual mean is 23.000000
The difference between these two values is 11.000000
The 95% confidence interval of this difference:
From 2.802210 to 19.197790
Intermediate values used in calculations:
t = 2.8085
df = 19
standard error of difference = 3.917
