Two-sample hypothesis tests

Reference no: EM13111808

A new cell phone battery is being considered as a replacement for the current one. Ten college student cell phone users are selected to try each battery in their usual mix of "talk" and "standby" and to record the number of hours until recharge was needed.

(a) Do these results show that the new battery has significantly longer life at α = .05? State your hypotheses and show all steps
clearly.

(b) Is the decision close?
