Davon Mahoney · Answer 1

Apply Z statistic value is + 2.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Men:

sample size = 25

sample means = 23

standard derivation = 5

Women

sample size = 30

sample means = 28

standard derivation = 10

At 0.01 significance level Apply Z statistic on this

then our null hypothesis if fail to reject.

2.369 is the critical value for hypothesis test
