One-Sample t-Test
• Scenario: A company claims that its employees work an average of 40
hours per week. A random sample of 10 employees reported the
following weekly working hours: 38, 42, 40, 39, 43, 37, 41, 44, 36, 39
• Determine the Null Hypothesis (H₀) and Alternative Hypothesis (H₁)
• Conduct a one-sample t-test to determine if the mean working hours
significantly differ from 40.
Two-Sample t-Test (Independent
Samples)
• Scenario: A company wants to compare the salaries of male and
female employees. Below are the annual salaries (in PHP thousands)
of randomly selected employees:
• Male Employees: 550, 580, 620, 600, 640, 570, 590, 610
• Female Employees: 530, 540, 580, 560, 590, 550, 570, 560
• Determine the Null Hypothesis (H₀) and Alternative Hypothesis (H₁)
• Conduct an independent two-sample t-test to compare the means.
Paired t-Test
• Scenario: A company implements a training program and wants to
assess if it improves employee performance scores. Below are the
performance scores of 8 employees before and after the training:

E 72 76
F 69 73
G 74 77
