In 2019 Silam Hospital hired new nurses from two top universities in the country. After one year, the hospital conducts a simple study to analyse whether there is a significant difference in regard to the performance of the nurses who graduated from the two universities. Considering the maximum performance score of 100, the following is the result of independent sampling of the nurses’ performance scores. Assume the scores are not normally distributed. Universities A : 97 69 73 84 76 92 90 88 84 87 93 Universities B : 88 99 65 69 97 84 85 89 91 90 87 91 72 a. What statistical method can be applied for this study? Explain your answer b. What is the hypothesis of the study? At a 5% significance level, is the performance between the two sample groups significantly different?
