    TEST STATISTICS
    There are two specific test statistics used for hypothesis
    testing concerning means: z-test and t-test.
    If the sample size is large, t- test is used when 𝑛 < 30,
    where 𝑛 ≥ 30 and the population the population is normal or nearly
    standard deviation (𝜎) is known, normal, and sample standard
    use z-test. In finding the z-value, deviation (𝑠) is unknown. The
    use the formula below: formula for the t- value is:

    The degrees of freedom is 𝑛 − 1 or 𝑑𝑓 = 𝑛 − 1.

    Directions: Identify the appropriate test statistic to be used
    based on the given information and solve.
    1. The sample mean is 345 and the sample size is 46. The population is
    normally distributed with a standard deviation of 11. Test the hypothesis
    at 0.05 level of significance. Consider the hypotheses below:
    𝐻𝑜: 𝜇 = 342
    𝐻𝑎: 𝜇 ≠ 342

    In general, if the absolute value of the computed value is
    greater than the absolute value of the critical value, we reject the
    null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if the
    absolute value of the computed value is less than the absolute
    value of the critical value, we do not reject or we fail to reject the
    null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not supported.

    13
    In a right-tailed test, if the computed value is greater than the critical
    value, we reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis.
    But if the computed value is less than the critical value, we do not reject or
    we fail to reject the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not
    supported.

    14
    In a left-tailed test, if the computed value is less than the critical value,
    we reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. But if
    the computed value is greater than the critical value, we do not reject or we
    fail to reject the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is not
    supported.
