This document discusses how to calculate the sample mean and standard deviation. It explains that the sample mean is calculated by adding all values in the data set and dividing by the number of values. The standard deviation is calculated by taking the square root of the sum of the squared differences between each value and the sample mean divided by the number of values minus one. It also provides the formula for calculating the t-statistic and compares it to the critical t-value to determine if the mean is statistically different than the hypothesized population mean.
