The mean age of a random sample of 25 people who were playing the slot machines is 48.7 years, and the standard deviation is 6.8 years. The mean age of a random sample of 35 people who were playing roulette is 55.3 with a standard deviation of 3.2 years. Can it be concluded at a = 0.10 that the mean age of those playing the slot machines is less than those playing roulette? Assume populations are normaly distributed. a. Determine whether this is a right tailed test, left tailed test or two tailed test. (If the answer is Right tailed, type "right", if the answer is Left tailed type "left", if the answer is Two tailed type "two") b. Compute the value of the test statistic (Provide the answer with 3 decimal places). c. How many degrees of freedom are there? d. What is the critical value/ P-value? (Provide the answer with 3 decimal places) e. Do you reject the null hypothesis? (If the answer is yes, type "y", if the answer is no type "n")
