Test of Hypothesis

1. In two countries C1 and C2, the height of adult women were studied. From country C1, 108 women were measured and their mean height is 63.2 inches
with standard deviation of 2.7 inches, while in country C2, 125 women were measured and their mean height is 60.5 inches with standard deviation of 3.5
inches. Is there a reason to believe that the height of women in C1 and C2 different significantly? Test at α=0.05. Assume variances are not equal.

1. Ho: µcr=µct
Ha: µcr>µCt

2. Tabular value at α=0.05 is 1.645

3. Computed z

= 6.637 or 6.64
√𝟐.𝟕 +𝟑.𝟓

4. Reject Ho
Accept Ha

5. The height of women in c1 and c2 are not significantly different.

2. A team of medical practitioners conducted a structured learning lesson to individuals known to have a high LDL cholesterol level. The lesson includes topics
on the importance of on diet and exercise to people with high LDL cholesterol levels. Before the session, a pretest was given to those who registered for the
program and after the learning sessions a posttest was administered. Suppose that the results of the exams are the following:
Participant Pretest Posttest
1 9 10
2 19 21
3 10 11
4 11 12
5 6 7
6 15 15
7 14 16
8 19 21
9 14 15
10 22 25
Test at 0.05 level of significance whether the structure learning lesson to individuals known to have a high LDL cholesterol was effective.

1. Ho: µd=0
Ha: µd>0

2. tabular value

4. Decision: Accept Ho, Reject Ha.

5. The Structure Learning Lesson to Individuals known to have a high LDL cholesterol was effective.
3. A survey by the National College Students’ Association showed that the students spend 560 pesos a week on the average. A sample of 145 students from
NORSU shows that they spend with an average of 610 pesos a week with a standard deviation of 65 pesos. Would you say that the NORSU students
spend more than the national average? Test at α = 0.05 level of significance.

1. Ho: M1=M2
Ha: M1>M2

2. Tabular value = 1.645 at α=0.05

3. Computed z value
