A graduate student in education has developed an mathematical intervention program for under-performing school children. To test the effectiveness of his intervention he administers a math skills assessment at the beginning of the school year to a sample of n-25 students. He then implements the program throughout the year and re-assess the students again at the end of the school year. On average there was a 3 point difference between time 1 and time 2, with a variance value of...

A college professor claims that the entering class this year appears to be smarter than entering classes from previous years. He tests a random sample of 22 this year's entering students and finds that their mean IQ score is 119, with standard deviation of 15. The college records indicate that the mean IQ score for entering students from previous years is 112. If we assume that the IQ scores of this year's entering class are normally distributed, is there enough...
