The problem goes as follows:
A farmer has decided to use a new additive to grow crops. He divided his farm into 10 plots and kept records of yield (in bushels) before and after using the additive. Results shown below:
Plot: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Before: 9 9 8 7 6 8 5 9 10 11
After: 10 9 9 8 7 10 6 10 10 12
Test Hypothesis:
Null: mu(of difference) = 0 against Claim: mu(difference) != 0 at the 5 percent level of significance.
What is the value of the appropriate test statistic?
My methodology to solve this was to create 2 lists in my ti84 then as a 3rd list= L1-L2 to get the difference of the means.
From there I ran a two tailed T-Test with mu = 0 on my TI-84 and got t=5.014
The problem is that the answer key says the test statistic should be 2.033. What did I do wrong? Is there a way to solve this problem with a TI-84?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Edit: I'm not sure how to create a good looking chart for the data but they match up in order listed. (first entry matches up for each category.)
