1a.

test mean x̄1 49.556


population mean µ1
std deviation sample s1 1.202437
sample size n1 15

significance 0.05 from table 4

Sp = 1.10913

Sx̄1 -x̄2 = 0.404997

H0; µ1 - µ2 = 0
H1; µ1 - µ2 ≠ 0

Assume H0 is true,
S^2 x̄1 -x̄2 = 0.140609

Reject H0 if test t ≤ -t0.025,28 = -2.048 or t ≥ t0.025,28 = 2.048


value of t taken from table 7

t = -3.47657

Since t = -3.47657, we reject H0,


there is sufficient evidence at 5% significance level that the
mean numbers of medals can differentiate these two games

1b. Olympic game will most likely to produce new world record in the future, because it has a lower m
x̄2 50.964
µ2
s2 1.007215
n2 15

cause it has a lower mean time
