Finding Critical Values of t on Calculators Without invT
Finding Critical Values of t on Calculators Without invT
We will find critical values of t, t( /2, by constructing a confidence interval with a mean of 0 and a standard error of 1 so that the confidence limits are (t( /2 with df = n – 1.
STAT/TESTS/8:TInterval
Input: Stats
[pic]: 0
[pic]: [pic]
n: n
C-Level: 1 – (
Calculate
For example to find the critical value of t for df = 19 and ( = 0.05 (this could then be used to create a 95% confidence interval for ( when n = 20).
STAT/TESTS/8:TInterval
Input: Stats
[pic]: 0
[pic]: [pic]
n: 20
C-Level: 0.95
Calculate
This gives the confidence interval (–2.093, 2.093) so the t( /2 = 2.093 with df = 19.
If you have a newer version of the TI-84 Plus you will have the invT function under DISTR, to use this to find t( /2:
DISTR/4:invT
invT(1 - (/2,df)
For example:
invT(0.975,19)
This gives t( /2 = 2.093024022 with df = 19. (Note: we can round to three decimal places.)
