Write 3 Hypothesis and determine the p-value. Also define which t-statistic was used in the test.

As Levene’s Test is rejected for α =5% (as p-value is very close to 0.00%), we take inputs from Line 2
(Equal Variances not assumed) and T statistic is 11.688

From this we can write 3 hypothesis regarding the beginning salary of clerical, custodial and manager
post and determine which one is higher or which one is lower.

H0 : µcl=µcs H0 : µcs=µm H0 : µcl =µm


HA : µcl≠µcs HA : µcs≠µm HA : µcl ≠µm
p-value = 31.7% p-value = 0.00% p-value = 0.00%
α =15%, do not reject H0 α =1%, reject H0 α =1%, reject H0

So, we can conclude that the Manager’s salary is different from other two categories. Also from Mean
Difference column of Post Hoc table, we can conclude that Manager’s salary is higher than other two.

So, be a manager!! Voila!!!

CHI Square Test


H0 : There is no relation between the beginning salary and the gender of an employee
HA : There is relation between the beginning salary and the gender of an employee
