A study was done on proctored and nonproctored tests. The results are shown in the table. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed​ populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below.

a. Use a
0.01
significance level to test the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
 
What are the null and alternative​ hypotheses?
 
 
A.
H0​:
μ1=μ2
H1​:
μ1≠μ2
 
B.
H0​:
μ1=μ2
H1​:
μ1>μ2
 
C.
H0​:
μ1≠μ2
H1​:
μ1<μ2
 
D.
H0​:
μ1=μ2
H1​:
μ1<μ2
The test​ statistic, t, is
nothing.
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
The​ P-value is
nothing.
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
State the conclusion for the test.
 
 
A.
Fail to reject
H0.
There
is
sufficient evidence to support the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
 
B.
Reject
H0.
There
is not
sufficient evidence to support the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
 
C.
Fail to reject
H0.
There
is not
sufficient evidence to support the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
 
D.
Reject
H0.
There
is
sufficient evidence to support the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
b. Construct a confidence interval suitable for testing the claim that students taking nonproctored tests get a higher mean score than those taking proctored tests.
 
nothing<μ1−μ2<nothing
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
Does the confidence interval support the conclusion of the​ test?
 
 
Yes,
No,
because the confidence interval contains
 
only positive values.
only negative values.
