2. An experiment was done to see whether open-book tests make a difference. A calculus class of 48 students agreed to be randomly assigned by the draw of cards to take a quiz either by open-notes or closed-notes. The quiz consisted of 30 integration problems of varying difficulty. Students were to do as many as possible in 30 minutes. The 24 students taking the exam closed-notes got an average of 15 problems correct with a standard deviation of 2.5. The open-notes crowd got an average of 12.5 correct with a standard deviation of 3.5. Assume that the populations are approximately normal. At the 5% significance level, does this data suggest that differences exist in the mean scores between the two methods?
