A professor is concerned that the two sections of college algebra that he teaches are not performing at the same level. To test his claim, he looks at the mean exam score for a random sample of students from each of his classes. In Class 1, the mean exam score for 12 students is 80.8 with a standard deviation of 5.7. In Class 2, the mean exam score for 14 students is 84.5 with a standard deviation of 4.9. Test the professor's claim at the 0.01 level of significance. Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal. Let Class 1 be Population 1 and let Class 2 be Population 2. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Ho: M₁ = 4₂ Ha: M M₂
