Unit 6 Assignment Testing Hypothesis

The document analyzes whether there is a difference in mean resting heart rate between males and females using a t-test. The t-stat, p-values, and t-critical values are reported. The p-value is greater than 0.05 so the null hypothesis that there is no difference cannot be rejected.

Testing Hypothesis

Hypothesis

H0: There is no difference in mean resting heart rate between males and females.

H1: There is a difference in mean resting heart rate between males and females.

Analysis

 t-stat is -1.469355384, which represents the calculated t-value.

 p(T<=t) two-tail is 0.143323501 for a two-tailed test.

 t-critical two-tail is 1.972017478 for a two-tailed test.

Variance 49.73716165 39.29796464
Observations 108 92
Hypothesized Mean Difference 0
df 198
t Stat -1.469355384
P(T<=t) one-tail 0.07166175
t Critical one-tail 1.652585784
P(T<=t) two-tail 0.143323501
t Critical two-tail 1.972017478

Interpretation

 If the p-value is low then null hypothesis must be rejected (Greenland et al., 2016).

The p-value (0.1433) is greater than the commonly used significance level of 0.05.

This indicates that we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

 In other words, at this significance level, the data does not provide enough evidence to

conclude that there is a statistically significant difference in the mean resting heart

rate between males and females.
