For a two-tailed test, P = 2(Area right of 2.14) use: Normal CDF( 2.14, 10,000) = .0168 now multiply this number by two ( because it takes into account both tails) .0168 *2 =.0324 this is less than 5% so you should reject H0

Find the critical values t and -t for a two-tailed test given = 0.05 and n = 26.

The degrees of freedom are df = n - 1 = 26 - 1 = 25. Look in the = 0.05 column from the "Area in Two Tails" section. Because the test is two-tailed, one critical value is negative and one is positive
