Question

Researchers are interested in whether having an older sibling provides people a model for stable relationships in adolescence. They gather random samples of people with either older siblings or not and measure the number of relationships they have as teenagers. For individuals with no older siblings (N=16), they find an average of 5 relationships (s=1.4) For individuals with older siblings (N=20), they find an average of 3.5 relationships (s=0.8). Test the null hypothesis that the number of adolescent relationships is equal between those with an older sibling and those without (alpha=0.05).

Explanation:

So, we do not have enough evidence to conclude that the number of adolescent relationships is equal between those with an older sibling and those without.
