Question
(b) What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means? (Use mean score first round mean score fourth round.)
For which round is the population mean score lower?
The mean of the fourth round scores was lower than the mean of the first round scores.
The mean of the first round scores was lower than the mean of the fourth round scores.
(c) What is the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval estimate for the difference between the population means? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Could this confidence interval have been used to test the hypothesis in part (a)? Explain.
Yes. One could check to see if the 90% confidence interval includes a difference of zero. If the interval does not contain zero, the difference is not statistically significant.
