Question
Please answer within 30min thanks.
A study was made to determine if the subject matter in a physics course is better understood
when a lab constitutes part of the course. Students were randomly selected to participate in
either a 3 hour course without labs or a 4 hour course with labs. In the section with labs, 11
students made an average grade of 85 with a standard deviation of 4.7, and in the section
without labs, 17 students made an average grade of 79 with a standard deviation of 6.1. Would
you say that the laboratory course increases the average grade by as much as 8 points? Assume
the populations to have approximately unequal variances.
What is the appropriate degrees of freedom for this test?
