This is my 50 data set. I was asked to perform a hypothesis testing on whether the mean of the following data is more than 50 or not. Due to large sample size, i should perfom a Z test. However, my lecturer only taught us how to perform a t test. By doing the step distribution analysis, and the value given is also t value.
May i know how to perform z test for the hypothesis testing using SAS enterprise?
