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.

Answer:

Angle A < Angle C < Angle B

CD<DE<CE

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles and the sides across from them have a specific relationship. Th smaller the angle or openness then the smaller the side. The larger the angle the larger the side. Since Angle A opposite side is 10 it is smaller than Angle B whose opposite side is 20. Since Angle C's opposite side is between the two, you can conclude that Angle A < Angle C < Angle B.

We can do the same for the other triangle knowing Angle D is 61 and Angle DCE is 60 (vertical angle theorem). Since a triangle's angles add to 180 then 180-61-60=59. Angle E is 59 degrees and since it is the smallest will have the smallest side CD. Angle DCE is the next largest and its oppposite side of DE will next followed by CE. You can conclude that CD<DE<CE
