One-sample t-test

Formula:

[insert formula here]

From the formula, the one-sample t-test requires:

1. [Sample/Population] mean, [insert or write notation]
2. [Sample/Population] standard deviation, [insert or write notation]
3. Sample size

The primary purpose of the one-sample t-test is to compare between a [population/sample] mean and a [population/sample] mean. This differs from a one-sample z-test because we do not have the standard deviation of the hypothesized [population/sample].

The hypotheses for a one-sample t-testis:
