When do you use t instead of Z of x bar?
|
Use t is sigma is unknown. If sigma is known use z of x bar.
|
|
t =
|
(x-bar - mu)/(s/sqrt(N))
|
|
the statistic has what type of distribution?
|
t - distribution, it is not normal
|
|
Characteristics of t-distribution
|
Mean = mu, symmetric, unimodal, fatter tail than normal - more variability
|
|
