6. A study was conducted to determine if the salaries of librarians from two neighboring cities were equal. A sample of 13 librarians from each city was randomly selected. The mean from the first city was $27,500 with a standard deviation of $2250. The mean from the second city was $29550 with a standard deviation of $1950. Test the hypothesis that the salaries from both cities are equal. Use a = 0.05. Write the null and alternate hypothesis. (conclude your result with P-value and critical value approach, both)

A professor believes that, for the introductory art history classes at his university, the mean test score of students in the evening classes is lower than the mean test score of students in the morning classes. He collects data from a random sample of 250 students in evening classes and finds that they have a mean test score of 76.8. He knows the population standard deviation for the evening classes to be 7.2 points. A random sample of 200 students from morning classes results in a mean test score of 77.8. He knows the population standard deviation for the morning classes to be 1.9 points. Test his claim with a 90% level of confidence. Let students in the evening classes be Population 1 and let students in the morning classes be Population 2. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.

4. A college instructor gave identical tests to two randomly sampled groups of 50 students. One group took the test on paper and the other took it online. Those who took the test on paper had an average score of 75.0 with a standard deviation of 12.5. those who took the test online had an average score of 78.0 with a standard deviation of 14.0. can you conclude that the mean scores differ between online and paper tests?
