From the given summaries with n = 12, the sample means are (\bar X = \frac{96}{12} = 8,\quad \bar Y = \frac{72}{12} = 6). Thus (\bar{\mathbf{x}} = (8,6)'). The hypothesised mean vector is (\boldsymbol{\mu}_0 = (9,7)'), so (\bar{\mathbf{x}} - \boldsymbol{\mu}_0 = (-1,-1)'). i) Σ known The inverse of (\Sigma = \begin{bmatrix}13&9\9&7\end{bmatrix}) has determinant (13\cdot7-9\cdot9 = 10), hence (\Sigma^{-1}=\frac1{10}\begin{bmatrix}7&-9\-9&13\end{bmatrix}). The test statistic is [
