The only case where thet distribution is needed
Table IV – Table IV – tt Percentiles Percentiles
Table IV (p. 945) gives certain percentiles Table IV (p. 945) gives certain percentiles of of tt for certain degrees of freedom. for certain degrees of freedom.
Open your book to page 945.Open your book to page 945. The columns give specific areas for The columns give specific areas for
upper-tails:upper-tails: 0.40, 0.30, 0.20, 0.10, 0.05, 0.025, 0.01, 0.40, 0.30, 0.20, 0.10, 0.05, 0.025, 0.01,
0.005.0.005. The rows give specific degrees of The rows give specific degrees of
freedom:freedom: 1, 2, 3, …, 30, 40, 60, 120.1, 2, 3, …, 30, 40, 60, 120.
Table IV – Table IV – tt Percentiles Percentiles
Look in the table at row 10, column Look in the table at row 10, column 0.05:0.05: The entry 1.812 meansThe entry 1.812 means
PP((tt > 1.812) = 0.05, > 1.812) = 0.05,
when when dfdf = 10. = 10. Draw a picture of the Draw a picture of the tt distribution distribution
and this upper tail.and this upper tail.
Table IV – Table IV – tt Percentiles Percentiles
Since the Since the tt distribution is symmetric, distribution is symmetric, we can also use the table for lower we can also use the table for lower tails by making the tails by making the tt values values negative.negative.
So, what is So, what is PP((tt < –1.812), when < –1.812), when dfdf = = 10?10?
Draw the picture.Draw the picture.
Table IV – Table IV – tt Percentiles Percentiles The table allows us to look up certain The table allows us to look up certain
percentiles, but it will percentiles, but it will notnot allow us to find allow us to find probabilities (in general).probabilities (in general).
For example, what is For example, what is PP((tt > 1.5) when > 1.5) when dfdf = = 18?18?
We can’t tell exactly.We can’t tell exactly. Look at row 18. You see 1.330 and 1.734, Look at row 18. You see 1.330 and 1.734,
from columns 0.10 and 0.05, respectively.from columns 0.10 and 0.05, respectively. Therefore, the best we can say isTherefore, the best we can say is
0.05 < 0.05 < PP((tt > 1.5) < 0.10. > 1.5) < 0.10.

normal), normal), andand is unknown, so we use is unknown, so we use ss in its place, in its place,
