t-Test for the Difference Between Means • To perform a two-sample hypothesis test with dependent samples, the difference between each data pair is first found: § d = x 1 – x 2 Difference between entries for a data pair • The test statistic is the mean of these differences.

t-Test for the Difference Between Means A t-test can be used to test the difference of two population means when these conditions are met. 1. The samples are random. 2. The samples are dependent (paired). 3. The populations are normally distributed or the number n ≥ 30. . Copyright 2019, 2015, 2012, Pearson Education, Inc. 9

Example: t-Test for the Difference Between Means A shoe manufacturer claims that the athletes can increase their vertical jump heights using the manufacturer’s training shoes. The vertical jump heights of eight randomly selected athletes are measured. After the athletes have used the training shoes for 8 months, their vertical jump heights are measured again. The vertical jump heights (in inches) for each athlete are shown in the table. At α = 0. 10, is there enough evidence to support the manufacturer’s claim? Assuming the vertical jump heights are normally distributed (Adapted from Coaches Sports Publishing) . Athletes 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Height (old) 24 22 25 28 35 32 30 27 Height (new) 26 25 25 29 33 34 35 30 Copyright 2019, 2015, 2012, Pearson Education, Inc. 14

Solution: Two-Sample t-Test for the Difference Between Means Solution: Because the samples are random and dependent, and the populations are normally distributed, you can use the t-test. The claim is that “athletes can increase their vertical jump heights. ” In other words, the manufacturer claims that an athlete’s vertical jump height before using the shoes will be less than the athlete’s vertical jump height after using the shoes. Each difference is given by d = (jump height before shoes) – (jump height after shoes). The null and alternative hypotheses are H 0: md 0 and Ha: md < 0. (Claim).

Example: t-Test for the Difference Between Means The campaign staff for a state legislator wants to determine whether the legislator’s performance rating (0 – 100) has changed from last year to this year. The table below shows the legislator’s performance ratings from the same 16 randomly selected voters for last year and this year. At = 0. 01, is there enough evidence to conclude that the legislator’s performance rating has changed? Assume the performance ratings are normally distributed. . Copyright 2019, 2015, 2012, Pearson Education, Inc. 20

Solution: t-Test for the Difference Between Means Solution: Because the samples are random and dependent, and the populations are normally distributed, you can use the ttest. If there is a change in the legislator’s rating, then there will be a difference between last year’s ratings and this year’s ratings. Because the legislator wants to determine whethere is a difference, the null and alternative hypotheses are H 0: md = 0 and Ha: md 0. (Claim). Copyright 2019, 2015, 2012, Pearson Education, Inc. 21

Solution: t-Test for the Difference Between Means The figure shows the location of the rejection region and the standardized test statistic t. Because t is not in the rejection region, you fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not enough evidence at the 1% level of significance to conclude that the legislator’s performance rating has changed. . Copyright 2019, 2015, 2012, Pearson Education, Inc. 25
