Question: A student investigated whether husbands tend to be older than their wives when they marry. The following data are from a dependent sample of 24 couples who obtained their marriage licenses in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, in 1993.

Using an appropriate two-sample test and a significance level of \[\alpha =0.01\] , determine whether these sample data provide evidence that the population mean age of husbands exceeds that of wives. You must state the hypotheses (5 points) , determine the test statistic (5 points) , and either the P-value(s) or critical value(s) (5 points) . Finally, you must clearly state your conclusion (5 points) . Round all answers to two decimal places.
