Parametric Test
df = n – 1
Here,
• ‘df’ is the degree of freedom;
• ‘n’ is the sample size.
The value derived from the above formula is the t-score. Then, the value of the t-score and the degree of freedom are
used to determine the p-value or probability using the T-Distribution table. This way, the chance of getting the desired
outcome is determined.

Interpretation of the Result
Compare t calc to t critical . In hypothesis testing, a critical value is a point on the test distribution
compares to the test statistic to determine whether to reject the null hypothesis. The calculated t statistic
value less than the critical value, hence we failed to reject null hypothesis.

Null Hypothesis (H0) : The mean dog weights are the same with
Diet 1 and Diet 2
Alternative Hypothesis (H1) : The mean dog weights are not the
same with Diet 1 and Diet 2

Find the critical value
df = 16
Significance level: α=0.05
If the calculated t value is less than -2.120 or greater than 2.120, then reject the null hypothesis.
TEST STATISTICS
1.538 < 2.120
Accept Null Hypothesis
Calculated t statistic value is less than the critical value and it is not in the rejection region, hence we failed
to reject the null hypothesis ( H0). So, the mean dog weights are the same with Diet 1 and Diet 2.

Solution Details:
n = 10
Significance level = 5%
Compute the mean difference (x̅ – µ)
x̅ -µ = 60.2-59.5
= 0.7
Calculate the difference of each observation in two groups
Calculate the standard deviation of differences (s)
S= = =
Compute the t-statistic
Given:
n = 10
t= = = 0.805
Determine T Critical Value
df = n - 1
= 10 - 1
=9
Significance level = 5%
tc = 2.262
t = 0.805
tc = 2.262
The t calculated is not in the rejection region. Hence, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and say that there
is no difference between the two mean values.
