Solve the t-test below.

A recent study examined the drinking behaviors of undergraduate college students (male and female freshmen). Each participant was asked how many alcoholic beverages they consumed during the past 7 days. The researchers wish to determine if there is a difference in the drinking habits of males and females in this age group.

Female	Male
9	13
5	9
5	7
9	11
8	10
3	5
5	6
2	10
1	16
7	12

1. Which type of test will you run?
2. What it the IV?
3. What is the DV?
4. What are the statistical hypotheses (Null and Alternative)?
5. What is the t-obtained value?
6. Make a decision about the null hypothesis (reject the Ho or Fail to reject the Ho).
7. Based on the interpretation of the results, what can you say about sex and drinking habits?
