Ackerman and Goldsmite found that students who studed tesxt from printed hardcopy had better test scores than students who studied from text presented on a screen. In a related study, a professor noticed that several students in a large class had purchased the e-book version of the course textbook. For the final exm, the overall average for the entire class was μ = 81.7 but the n = 9 students who used e-books had a mean of M = 72.2 with a standard deviation of s = 5.7

a. is the sample sufficient to condluce that scores for students using e-books were significantly different from scores for the regular class? use a two-tailed test with alpha = .05
