When conducting a hypothesis test concerning the population mean, and the population standard deviation is unknown, the value of the test statistic is calculated as .

the value of the test statistic is calculated as "T - distribution" with the formula;

t = (x-bar - μ)/(s/√n)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the standard deviation is unknown. But normally, we use a z-distribution if the standard deviation is known.

However, in a hypothesis test for a population mean where the population standard deviation is unknown is still conducted in the same way like we do when we know the population standard deviation. The only difference in this case is that we will use the t-distribution rather than the standard normal z-distribution.

The t-distribution formula used is;

t = (x-bar - μ)/(s/√n)
