1. Question: An adviser is testing out a new online learning module for a placement test. They wish to test the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores at a significance level of α = 0.05. For the context of this problem, μD=μnew–μold where the first data set represents the new test scores and the second data set represents old test scores. Assume the population is normally distributed. 2. Question: A researcher is testing reaction times between the...
