Solution

To calculate the test statistic, we need the following information, depending on the type of test being conducted (e.g., tt-test, zz-test, etc.):

  1. Type of Test: Is it a one-sample tt-test, two-sample tt-test, paired tt-test, or another kind?
  2. Sample Mean (xˉ\bar{x}): The mean of the sample data.
  3. Population Mean (μ\mu): The claimed or hypothesized population mean.
  4. Sample Standard Deviation (ss): The standard deviation of the sample.
  5. Sample Size (nn): The number of observations in the sample.
  6. Significance Level (α\alpha): If provided, this will help evaluate the test statistic.

The general formula for a tt-test statistic is:

t=xˉμs/nt = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{s / \sqrt{n}}

If you provide these details, I can help compute the test statistic and round it to two decimal places.

Tip: Always ensure your sample data meets the assumptions for the statistical test you're using. For a tt-test, the data should be approximately normally distributed for small samples.
