The average weekly total, based on the prices of approximately 95 items, is given for this chain and for its competitor recorded during four consecutive weeks in a particular month.

Answer:

a) critical values ≈ -3.182 and 3.182  shows that there is difference in average prices

b)   H0 : μd = 0

    Ha : μd ≠ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Determine if there is any significant difference in the average prices

using ∝ = 0.05

and  μ( advertiser ) - μ ( competitor ) = μd

test statistic ( t ) =  -3.011

df = 3

hence the critical values ( two tailed test ) =  -3.182 and 3.182. this shows that there is sufficient evidence to show that there is difference in the average prices

b) state the hypothesis

 H0 : μd = 0 ( null )

Alternate hypothesis : Ha : μd ≠ 0
