Question

Transcribed Image Text:An instructor for a test preparation course claims that the course will improve the test scores of students. The table shows the critical reading scores for 14 students the first two times they took the test. Before taking
the test for the second time, the students took the instructor's course to try to improve their critical reading test scores. At a = 0.01, is there enough evidence to support the instructor's claim? Complete parts (a) through
(f).
