26. Students who take a statistics course are given a pre-test on the concepts and skills for the first chapter of a statistics

course. Then they are given a post-test once the professor has concluded lecturing on the material. Pre-test and post-test scores for 4 students in an elementary statistics class are given below. Can it be concluded that the test scores have improved? The standard deviation is 6.02. Use α = .05.
Pre-test 65 70 75 84
Post-test 80 82 85 85
Difference 15 12 10 1

The test statistic value lies to the right of the critical value. So we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

<h3>What are null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses?</h3>

In null hypotheses, there is no relationship between the two phenomenons under the assumption or it is not associated with the group. And in alternative hypotheses, there is a relationship between the two chosen unknowns.

Students who take a statistics course are given a pre-test on the concepts and skills for the first chapter of a statistics course.

Then they are given a post-test once the professor has concluded lecturing on the material.

Pre-test and post-test scores for 4 students in an elementary statistics class are given below.

Then we have

\mu _d = \mu _{post} - \mu _{pre}

Then the null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses will be

H₀: \mu _d = 0

Hₐ: \mu _d > 0

Then the test statistic will be

\rm \overline{x} _d = \dfrac{\Sigma x_d}{n} = \dfrac{15+12+10+1}{4}\\\\\overline{x} _d = 9.5

Then

\rm S_d = 6.02

The test statistic value is given by

\rm t = \dfrac{\overline{x} _d }{\dfrac{S_d}{\sqrtn}} \\\\t = \dfrac{9.5}{\dfrac{6.02}{\sqrt4}}\\\\t = 3.16

Since this is a right-tailed test, so the critical value is given by

\rm t_{n-1}(\alpha ) = t_3 (0.05) = 2.353

Since the test statistic value lies to the right of the critical value. So we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, we can conclude that \mu _d > 0 that is test scores have improved.

More about the null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses link is given below.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

D. (4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,4)

Reflection in the y-axis:

Same y, -ve x

(3,4)

Reflection in y = x

(x,y) goes to (y,x)

(3,4) goes to (4,3)
