A nationwide company specializing in preparing students for college and graduate school entrance exams, such as the SAT, ACT, and LSAT, had the business objective of improving its ACT preparatory course.

(Question about the null hypothesis)

A nationwide company specializing in preparing students for college and graduate school entrance exams, such as the SAT, ACT, and
LSAT, had the business objective of improving its ACT preparatory course. Two factors of interest to the company are the length of
the course (a condensed 10-day period or a regular 30-day period) and the type of course (traditional classroom or online distance
learning). The company collected data by randomly assigning 10 clients to each of the four cells that represent a combination of
length of the course and type of course. The results are organized and presented in the following table:
