Hypothesis Testing for Wheat Yield in Faisalabad

A random sample of 30 wheat forms from Faisalabad district showed a mean wheat production of 50 kg per acre. The document tests the hypothesis that: 1) The mean wheat production is greater than 45 kg per acre. The null hypothesis is rejected since the calculated t value of 9.13 is greater than the critical t value of 1.699, indicating the mean is likely greater than 45 kg. 2) The mean wheat production is less than 45 kg per acre. The null hypothesis is not rejected since the calculated t value of 9.13 is not less than the critical t value of -1.699, so it cannot be concluded the mean is less than 45 kg.

Lecture date: 7-8-2020 Testing of hypothesis

A random sample of 30 wheat forms from


Faisalabad district showed the mean wheat
production of 50 Kg per acre. Can we
conclude that the mean production of
wheat from Faisalabad district is greater
than 45 Kg per acre, if sample variance is
known to be 9 Kg2. Use 5% level of
significance?
Lecture date: 7-8-2020 Testing of hypothesis
• 1) Construction of hypotheses
• Ho :   45 H1:  > 45
• 2) Level of significance  = 5%
𝑥−𝑢0 50−45
• 3) Test Statistic 𝑡 = 𝑠 =3 = 9.13
𝑛 30

• 𝐻1 : 𝑢 > 𝑢0 t𝑡𝛼,(𝑛−1)

• 4) Decision Rule:- Reject Ho if tcal  t0.05(29)


9.13  1.699
• 5) Result:-As tcal > ttabulated So reject Ho and conclude that
the average wheat production in Faisalabad district is not
more than 45 Kg per acre.
