Question

A college preparation academy claims that their 3-hour crash course may have an effect on students' SAT scores. A skeptical parent decided to perform research and administered the practice SAT tests to a sample of 33 students the day before and the day after the advertised 3-hour crash course. The following data with the means and standard deviations were obtained:

After:

523	537	601	641	514
596	605	631	624	528
591	604	573	684	576
577	596	585	597	592
603	564	544	517	642
689	608	591	577	546
615	607	638

(Note: The average and the standard deviation of the data are respectively 591.39 points and 42.91 points.)

Before:

571	701	544	603	713
692	684	673	596	513
557	683	679	676	645
605	690	670	641	642
576	562	657	635	565
606	583	507	582	651
639	606	628

(Note: The average and the standard deviation of the data are respectively 623.48 points and 55.45 points.)

Difference:

-48	-164	57	38	-199
-96	-79	-42	28	15
34	-79	-106	8	-69
-28	-94	-85	-44	-50
27	2	-113	-118	77
83	25	84	-5	-105
-24	1	10

(Note: The average and the standard deviation of the data are respectively -32.09 points and 71.18 points.)

Use 1% level of significance to decide whether there is sufficient evidence that the mean practice SAT score after the crash course is the same as the mean practice SAT score before the crash course.

Procedure:

Assumptions: (select everything that applies)

Normal populations
Independent samples
Population standard deviation are unknown but assumed equal
Simple random samples
The number of positive and negative responses are both greater than 10 for both samples
Population standard deviations are known
Sample sizes are both greater than 30
Population standard deviation are unknown
