Final answer:

The t-value in hypothesis testing of a single population mean is calculated using the mean, variance, and sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variables used to calculate the t-value in hypothesis testing of a single population mean are:

  1. Mean: the average value of the sample
  2. Variance: the measure of how spread out the data is around the mean
  3. Sample size: the number of observations in the sample

These three variables are necessary to calculate the t-value, which is used to determine the statistical significance of the difference between the sample mean and the population mean.
