One-Sample t Hypothesis Testing A researcher was interested in whether the graduate students enrolled in American stats classes have a different IQ than graduate students in British stats classes. It is known that the population’s mean IQ of students in American stats classes is 98. The researcher obtained a random sample of 6 British graduate students and asked them their IQ. These data appear in the table below. IQ 95 89 97 110 98 101
