Question
A standardized test has a scale that ranges from 3 to 45. A new type of review course for the test was developed by a training company. The accompanying table shows the scores for nine students before and after taking the review course. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
E Click the icon to view the data table.
a. Perform a hypothesis test using a= 0.05 to determine if the average test score is higher for the students after the review course when compared with before the course. Let p, be the population mean of matched-pair differences for the score before the course minus the score after the course. State the null and
alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below.
O A. Ho: Ha = 0
H,: Ha #0
O B. Ho: Ha 20
H,: Hg <0
OC. Ho: Ha >0
