For a sample of 48 finance majors, the average time spent reading each issue of the campus newspaper is 19.7 minutes, with a standard deviation of 7.3 minutes. The corresponding figures for a sample of 40 management information system majors are 16.3 and 4.1 minutes. What is the the test statistic, t, with the 0.01 level of significance?

The t-value is ±2.626.

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent sample t-test will be performed to determine whether there is a difference between the average time spent reading each issue of the campus newspaper by finance majors and management majors.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: There is no difference between the two means, i.e.

Hₐ: There is no difference between the two means, i.e.

The test statistic is:

The degrees of freedom is:

The critical value of t is:

*Use a t-table.

**Use the next higher degrees of freedom if 86 is not available.

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
