Answer 1

The upper-tail critical values tα/2 for each given circumstance are as follows: a. 2.660; d. 2.831; b. 1.659; e. 2.011; c. 3.355.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the upper-tail critical value tα/2 in each situation, we need to refer to the table of critical values for the t distribution. Since we don't have access to the table here, let me provide the values:

a. For 1-α = 0.99 and n = 59, the upper-tail critical value tα/2 is 2.660.

d. For 1-α = 0.99 and n = 21, the upper-tail critical value tα/2 is 2.831.

b. For 1-α = 0.90 and n = 59, the upper-tail critical value tα/2 is 1.659.

e. For 1-α = 0.95 and n = 52, the upper-tail critical value tα/2 is 2.011.

c. For 1-α = 0.99 and n = 8, the upper-tail critical value tα/2 is 3.355.
