The National Sleep Foundation used a survey to determine whether hours of sleeping per night are independent of age (Newsweek, January 19, 2004). The following show the hours of sleep on weeknights for a sample of individuals age 49 and younger and for a sample of individuals age 50 and older. Hours of Sleep Age Fewer than 6 6 to 6.9 7 to 7.9 8 or more Total 49 or younger 30 56 73 81 240 50 or older 30 59 72 99 260 Conduct a test of independence to determine whether the hours of sleep on weeknights are independent of age.

The null and alternate hypotheses are: h0: μ1 ≤ μ2 h1: μ1 > μ2 a random sample of 22 items from the first population showed a mean of 113 and a standard deviation of 12. a sample of 16 items for the second population showed a mean of 99 and a standard deviation of 6. use the 0.01 significant level. find the degrees of freedom for unequal variance test. (round down your answer to the nearest whole number.) state the decision rule for 0.010 significance level. (round your answer to 3 decimal places.) compute the value of the test statistic. (round your answer to 3 decimal places.) what is your decision regarding the null hypothesis? use the 0.01 significance level.
