Which of the following are the correct hypotheses?

  • H0:μd≥0H0:μd≥0
    HA:μd<0HA:μd<0(claim)
  • H0:μd≤0H0:μd≤0
    HA:μd>0HA:μd>0(claim)
  • H0:μd=0H0:μd=0
    HA:μd≠0HA:μd≠0(claim)

Given that αα is 0.01 the critical value is 2.584

The test statistic is: (round to 3 places)

The p-value is: (round to 3 places)

The decision can be made to:

  • reject H0H0
  • do not reject H0H0

The final conclusion is that:

  • There is enough evidence to reject the claim that there was an increase in the scores.
  • There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that there was an increase in the scores.
  • There is enough evidence to support the claim that there was an increase in the scores.
  • There is not enough evidence to support the claim that there was an increase in the scores.
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data,

We have to test the claim that there was an increase in the scores.

Let,

Difference, d = Post-test – Pre-test

Hypothesis Formulation-

Null Hypothesis, H0: μD ≤ 0

Alternate Hypothesis, Ha: μD > 0

Since here population standard deviation is unknown so using t-test statistics.

Correct option is

H0:μd≤0
HA:μd>0(claim)
