Math 1070 Excel Project (Due: Monday, April 14, 2014 before 11:59pm)
Instructor - Jie Zhang
Name: Roderick Wisdom
Class Day/Time: W/1:00
Reminder: The goal of this project is to get you comfortable with the use of Excel; to that end,
any calculations, even minor ones, not done using Excel, could result in point deductions or
possibly a grade of '0' for this assignment. (You should have absolutely no need for a calculator
on this assignment).
Cells are formatted to show 2 decimal places but you should type formulas (not numbers)

Data Set
The data in the columns below are counts of the number of words spoken in a day by male (M) and female (F)
subjects in independent simple random samples of men and women ranging in age from 18 to 29.
Parts 1-3 will relate to one or both of the data in these columns:

20981 Part 2 : Hypothesis Test for Means (1-Sample)
21261 Test the claim that the mean number of words spoken by women (in between the ages
21420 of 18 to 29) is more than 16000 per day. Use a significance level of 0.05:
24480

=16000
H o:
28838
> 16000
H 1:
29730
degrees of freedom:

test statistic:
33789
P-value:
34869
Ho decision:
P-value 0.05 so reject H0
38154
Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence to support the claim.
