It is assumed that the mean systolic blood pressure is
μ = 120 mm Hg
. In the Honolulu Heart Study, a sample ofn = 100
people had an average systolic blood pressure of 130.1 mm Hg with a standard deviation of 21.21 mm Hg. Is the group significantly different (with respect to systolic blood pressure!) from the regular population?- Set up the hypothesis test.
- Write down all the steps followed for setting up the test.
- Calculate the test statistic by hand and also code it in Python. It should be 4.76190. We will take a look at how to make decisions based on this calculated value.
