Critical Value at 5% and one-tailed test with degree of freedom of 99 from the t.2 table on the textbook page 370-372: 1 than the X_before, the critical value is "-1.66" 6. obtained t-value (-3.917) is more extreme than the critical value (-1.66) 7. Therefore, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that working hours after the policy implementation is smaller than using '=T.TEST' function on the lecture PPT =T.Test (array 1, array 2, tails, type) ==> =T.TEST(C2:C101,B2:B101,1,1) The Post-test should come to the array 1. 0.000681643 means that there is only .07% chance that the null hypothesis is true. 0.000681643 t-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means Mean Variance Observations Pearson Correlation Hypothesized Mean Difference df t Stat P(T<=t) one-tail t Critical one-tail P(T<=t) two-tail Variable 1 Variable 2 40.42 41.15 2.7309090909 1.805555556 100 100 -0.083244749 0 99 -3.29573235 0.000681643 1.660391156 0.0013632859 t Critical two-tail 1.9842169516 workers are too long. ess.

Then, calculate the obtained value. It is -3.29573. 2 table on the textbook page 370-372: 1.66 (df = 99, thus check the df of 100, 0.05 for one-tailed). As it is testing the X_after is smaller he policy implementation is smaller than the working hours before. is that the average weekly entation. ined value. It is -3.29573. is testing the X_after is smaller
