What is 75.39?
In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, this is the answer to the "Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything."

What is a Type II Error?
Given our alternative hypothesis is one-sided and sample size is 14, this is our critical value for 99% confidence.
What is t_{13,0.01}=2.65 ?
If a confidence interval supports the results of a hypothesis test, it should (or should not) contain this value.
What is the null value?
