Total Pay Mean 35628.96121 sd n se(mean) 3252.464293 / 124000 Hypothesized 1.467027132 t-stat 18. Perform a t-test of the null-hypothesis that the average employee sampled for this dataset earns $124,000 (use the "Total Pay" column). What is the p-value resulting from this two-tailed test?

Final answer:

To conduct a t-test for the null hypothesis, we need the mean and standard deviation of the 'Total Pay' column. Unfortunately, the necessary information to calculate the p-value is missing from the question. Without the missing data, we are unable to determine the p-value.

Step-by-step explanation:

To conduct a t-test for the null hypothesis that the average employee earns $124,000 in the dataset, we need the mean and standard deviation of the 'Total Pay' column. The mean is given as 35628.96121 and the standard deviation as 3252.464293. The t-statistic is given as 18. Using these values, we can calculate the p-value for the two-tailed test.

Unfortunately, the necessary information to calculate the p-value is missing from the provided question. Without the sample size or additional statistics, we cannot determine the p-value. To calculate the p-value, we would need the degrees of freedom, the t-distribution, and the t-table or statistical software.

Therefore, without the missing information, we are unable to calculate the p-value resulting from this two-tailed test.
