>Analyze>Compare Means>One Sample T test
(remember to enter Test Value Box with test value/population mean-0 for
confidence, Mu for t-test.
*Draw a random sample with N=10 from the population of 1970 state census population in millions. I will show you how before lab starts involves a random number table (its in book).
