Question
If, in a sample of n=25 selected from a normal population, X=58 and S=20, what are the critical values of t if the level of significanc , is 0.01, the null hypothesis, H0, is =50, and the alternative hypothesis, H1, is (= with the / going through it) 50?
Critical Values of t. For a particular number of degrees of freedom, entry represents the critical value of t corresponding to the cumulative probability 1 minus alpha and a specified upper-tail area alpha.

The critical values of t are ± _?
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Explanation / Answer
from above std error =std deviation/(n)1/2 =4
hence test stat =(X-mean)/std error =(58-50)/4 =2
for 24 degree of freedom and 0.01 level and two tailed test; critical values are =+/- 2.7969
as test stat is inside critical values we can not reject null hypothesis.,
