Every year, all incoming high school freshmen in a large school district take a math placement test. For this year's test, the district has prepared two possi versions: Version 1 that covers more material than last year's test and Version 2 test that is similar to last year's test. The district suspects that the mean for Version 1 will be less than the mean score for Version 2. To examine this, over the summer the district randomly selects 90 incoming freshmen to come offices to take Version 1, and it randomly selects 80 incoming freshmen to come take Version 2. The 90 incoming freshmen taking Version 1 score a mean 112.7 points with a standard deviation of 14.1. The 80 incoming freshmen taking Version 2 score a mean of 117.3 points with a standard deviation of 15.5. Assume that the population standard deviations of the test scores from the two versions can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean test score, ₁, for Version 1 is less than the mean test score, μ₂, for Version 2? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis H₁. μ O P S Ho :O H₁ :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use.
