A study is to be done to compare math achievement in middle school and high school. A random sample of middle school students at the middle school is chosen and their math achievement scores recorded. The math achievement scores for the same students are recorded in high school. The paired data is provided below. Assume that the data meets the conditions to calculate a 95% confidence interval. Middle School: 45 50 60 63 52 57 51 44 55 62 50 High School: 35 49 60 57 45 51 45 39 56 47 41 1. Are these considered dependent or independent populations? 2. What is the point estimate of the mean difference in the Middle and High School math achievement scores? 3. We are 95%confident that the difference in the mean difference in the Middle and High school math achievement scores is between and . 4. Because the interval we .
