A researcher randomly selects 6 fathers who have adult sons and records the fathers' and sons' heights to obtain the data shown in the table below. Test the claim that sons are taller than their fathers at the alpha α=0.10level of significance. The normal probability plot and boxplot indicate that the differences are approximately normally distributed with no outliers so the use of a paired t-test is reasonable.

Since we fail to reject the null hypothesis and rejected the claim.
