Answer:

a. 5.26

Step-by-step explanation:

As, the standard deviation of the distribution of the difference between mean is 0.76 so the t score will be simply calculated by dividing the difference of means by standard deviation of the distribution of the difference between mean as hypothesized difference is zero.

t score=Xbar A- Xbar B/Sd of difference of means

t score=55-51/0.76

t score=4/0.76=5.26
