T-test

T-test is used to compare

two (2) means, the means
of two independent
samples or two
independent groups and
the means of correlated
samples before and after
the treatment.
 Ideally the t-test is used
when there are less than 30
samples. But many
statisticians used t-test
even in more than 30
samples.
t-test Formula
Degree
of
Freedom
Degree of Freedom (df) is used
to determine the critical t-
value on testing a hypothesis.
 One Tailed Test
One-tailed tests allow for the
possibility of an effect
in one direction.
 Two Tailed Test
Two-tailed tests test for the
possibility of an effect
in two directions—positive and
negative.
 Statement of the Problem
Is there a significant difference in
the performance in statistics
considering their age?
Hypothesis
 Compute for df and
locate the critical t-value
Solving for t-value
Manually
Solving for Mean
Solving for Variance
Solving for t-value
Conclusion
The computed t-value of 2.48 is greater that the
t-critical value of 2.306 which means that there is
significant difference in the students’ performance
in Statistics considering age. Thus, the null
hypothesis is rejected.

Conclusion
The computed t-value of 2.638 with p-value
of 0.029 or 0.03 is less than the p-critical value
of 0.05 which means that there is significant
difference in the students’ performance in
Statistics considering age. Thus, the null
hypothesis is rejected.
