Question

:    Researchers    studies    the    effect    of    a    fertilizer    on    radish    sprout    growth.        They    randomly    
selected     some     radish     seeds     to     serve     as     controls,    while     others    were     planted    in     aluminum     planters     to    
which    fertilizer    sticks    were    added.    Other    conditions    were    held    constant    between    the    two    groups.    The    
following    table    shows    a    summary    of    the    heights    of    plants    (in    cm)    2    weeks    after    germination

Perform    a    two-sample    (pooled)    test    to    investigate    whether    the    average    population    height    of    
plants    is    significantly different between    the    two    groups    at    5%    level.
Step    1:    H0:_____________________    and        Ha:    _____________________    Significance    level    α=_____________
Step    2:    List    and    verify necessary    data    conditions    and    compute    an    appropriate    test    statistic:
Data    Conditions:    _____________________________________________________________________________________________
