A recent study focused on the number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day. The information is summarized below. Men Sample size-25 Sample mean-20 Population standard deviation-5
Women Sample size-30 Sample mean-30 Population standard deviation-10
At the .01 significance level, is there a difference in the mean number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day? What is the value of the test statistic for this hypothesis test?
1. 2.668
2. 2.672
3. 2.58
4. 2.40

The value of the test statistic = 2.58

Test statistic Z = - 4.805

|Z| = 4.805 > 2.58

Null hypothesis is rejected The value of the test statistic = 2.58

There is  significant difference between in the mean number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Sample size of men  n₁ = 25

mean of the first sample x₁⁻ = 20

Standard deviation of the first sample σ₁ = 5

Sample size of women n₂ = 30

mean of the second sample x₂⁻ = 30

Standard deviation of the first sample σ₂ = 10

Level of significance ∝= 0.01

Step(ii):-

Null Hypothesis : H₀: There is no significant difference between in the mean number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁:There is  significant difference between in the mean number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day

Test statistic

Z =  

The value of the test statistic = 2.58 C

|Z| = 4.805 > 2.58

Null hypothesis is rejected The value of the test statistic = 2.58

Conclusion:-

There is  significant difference between in the mean number of times men and women send a Twitter message in a day
