Question

You wish to test the following claim (HaHa) at a significance level of α=0.002α=0.002. For the context of this problem, μd=PostTest−PreTestμd=PostTest-PreTest where the first data set represents a pre-test and the second data set represents a post-test. (Each row represents the pre and post test scores for an individual. Be careful when you enter your data and specify what your μ1μ1 and μ2μ2 are so that the differences are computed correctly.)

Ho:μd=0Ho:μd=0
Ha:μd≠0Ha:μd≠0

You believe the population of difference scores is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. You obtain the following sample of data:

pre-test	post-test
50.3	65
56.3	50.3
43.3	41.7
45.8	81.2
51.4	98.9
42.6	59.3
48.7	75.3
49.6	57.9
45	36.8
41.3	80.8
52.5	74.3
51.2	58.3
44.2	53
52.5	60.2
46.5	74.8

What is the test statistic for this sample?
test statistic = (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)

What is the p-value for this sample?
p-value = (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
