Answer: A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

  • We reject the null hypothesis when the absolute critical t-value is lower than the absolute t-obtained value.

The given t-critical value
T_(crit)=2.50

So , we reject null hypothesis , when
2.50< | T_(obt)|

Since,
2.50<|2.75|,\ \ 2.50<|-2.75| but
2.50>|2.40|\ \ \ , 2.50>|-2.40|

So, the correct options are A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75
