Q: The purpose of Team C's research is to determine why men receive higher salaries than women. Before researching the topic, team c will verify that women do indeed make less than men. According to the wages data set, women consist of only 3 of the top 25 salaries out of 100 samples. The mean women's salary is $24,452 with a standard deviation of $12,446, and the mean for the men's salary is $36,493 with a standard deviation of $18,448. Our hypothesis is that men receive higher salaries than women. This hypothesis can be stated numerically as follows:
One-tailed (right-tailed)
H0: µ ≤ $24,452
H1: µ > $24,452
