A Recent Study Compared the Time Spent Together by Single

A recent study compared the time spent together by single and dual-earner couples. According to
The records kept during the study, the mean amount of time spent together watching TV among
Single-earner couples was 60 minutes per day, with a standard deviation of 15.5 minutes. For the
Dual-earner couples, the mean time was 48.4 and the standard deviation was 18.1. At a 0.01
Significance level, can we conclude that the single-earner couples on average spend more time
Watching TV together? There were 12 single-earner and 12 dual-earner couples studied. State the
Decision rule, the value of the test statistic, and your decision.

A) Reject if t > 2.485, t = 2.77, single-earner couples spend more time watching TV together.
B) Reject if t > 2.508, t = 1.96, insufficient evidence to say that single-earner couples spend more time watching TV together.
C) Reject if t > 2.797, t = 2.57, single-earner couples spend more time watching TV together.
D) Reject if t > 2.508, t = 1.69, insufficient evidence to say that single-earner couples spend more time watching TV together.
E) Reject if t > 2.508, t = 0.96, insufficient evidence to say that single-earner couples spend more time watching TV together.
