According to the result of statistic calculation, it is obtained that the score of to = 8.45 > tt = 1.67 in degree of significance 5%. The score of to = 8.45 > tt = 2.39 in degree of significance 1%. It indicates that the value of tobservation is bigger than ttable. tobservation = 8.45 > ttable.= 1.67. tobservation = 8.45 > ttable.= 2.39, so Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted.
