Question

Because the t procedures are robust, the most important condition for their safe use is that

(a) the population standard deviation a- is known.

(b) the population distribution is exactly Normal.

(c) the data can be regarded as an SRS from the population.

Solution

Verified
Step 1
1 of 2

The tt-procedures do not require the knowledge of the population standard deviation σ\sigma.

Since the tt procedures are robust, deviations of normality will still be safe.

Thus the most important condition is that the sample is an SRS.
