t test for single mean and t-test for difference of means
1. The manufacturer of a certain make of electric bulbs claims that his bulbs have a
mean life of 25 months with a standard deviation of 5 months. Random samples of 6
such bulbs have the following values: Life of bulbs in months: 24, 20, 30, 20, 20, and
18. Can you regard the producer’s claim to valid at 1% level of significance?
2.A certain stimulus administered to each of the 13 patients resulted in the following increase of
blood pressure: 5, 2, 8,-1, 3, 0, -2, 1, 5, 0, 4, 6, 8. Can it be concluded that the stimulus, in
general, be accompanied by an increase in the blood pressure?
3. the life time of electric bulbs for a random sample of 10 from a large consignment
gave the following data: 4.2, 4.6, 3.9, 4.1, 5.2, 3.8, 3.9, 4.3, 4.4, 5.6 (in ‘000 hours).
Can we accept the hypothesis that the average life time of bulbs is 4, 000 hours
4. Data on weight (grams) of two treatments of NMU ( nistroso- methyl urea) are
recorded. Find out whether these two treatments have identical effects by using t test
for sample means at 5% level of significance.
Sample 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Treatments 0.2 % 2.0 2.7 2.9 1.9 2.1 2.6 2.7 2.9 3.0 2.6 2.6 2.7
0.4% 3.2 3.6 3.7 3.5 2.9 2.6 2.5 2.7
5. Hypothesis Tests for Two Means :Independent Data:Here we test for a
difference in means for the following data
No

Paired t-test And F- (Variance Ratio Test)
1. A study was performed to test whether cars get better mileage on premium gas
than on regular gas. Each of 10 cars was first filled with either regular or
premium gas, decided by a coin toss, and mileage for that tank was recorded.
The mileage was recorded again for the same car using the other kind of
gasoline. We use a paired t – test to determine whether cars get significant
better mileage with premium gas
.
Regular 16 20 21 22 23 22 27 25 27 28
Premium 19 22 24 24 25 25 26 26 28
2. The Scores of 10 candidates prior and after training are given below
Prior 84 48 36 37 54 69 83 96 90 65
After 90 58 56 49 62 81 84 86 84 75
Test the training is Effective or Not?
3. An IQ test was administrated to 5 persons before and after they were trained.
The results are given below
Candidates I II III IV V
IQ before Training 110 120 123 132 125
IQ After Training 120 118 125 136 121
Test whether there is any change in IQ after the training Programme
4. In order to compare the effectiveness of two sources of nitrogen, namely
ammonium chloride and urea on grain yield of paddy, an experiment was
conducted. The results on the grain yield of paddy(kg/plot) under the two
treatments are given below
Ammonium
Chloride 13.4 10.9 11.2 11.8 14.0 15.3 14.2 12.6 17.0 16.2 16.5 15.7
Urea 12.0 11.7 10.7 11.2 14.8 14.4 13.9 13.7 16.9 16.0 15.6 16.0
Asses which sources nitrogen is better for paddy
F Test to Compare Two Variances
5 .Five Measurements of the output of two units have given the following results
(in kilograms of material per one hour of operation) .Assume that both samples have
been obtained from normal populations, test at 10% significance level if two
populations have the same variance.
Unit A 14.1 10.1 14.7 13.7 14.0
Unit B 14.0 14.5 13.7 12.7 14.1
