Eight students were given a quiz before & after they took review classes had the following ratings:

Before	After
5	6
6	6
4	9
4	6
4	5
5	6
8	9
7	10

What is the critical value at the .05 level of significance?

What is the test statistic?

At an .05 level of significance, can we conclude that the review classes were helpful?

Using the data above, assume that these were scores of two groups of 8 students on the quiz either before or after the review class.

What is the critical value at the .05 level of significance?

In a statistics class, 8 students took their pulses before and after an exam. The pulse rates (beats per minute) of the students before and after the exam were obtained separately and are shown in the table. Treat this as though it were a random sample of statistics students. Test the hypothesis that the mean of statistics students' pulse rates is higher after an exam using a significance level of 0.05. Do the 5-step hypothesis test and submit an image...
