The professor will have to pay for the software only if he chooses to continue using it. In the trial course that used this? software,
201201
students scored an average of
111111
points on the final with a standard deviation of
8.98.9
points. Complete parts? a) and? b) below.

Fail to reject
Upper H 0H0.
The change is not statistically significant. The software does not appear to improve exam scores.
?b) Does this improvement seem to be practically? significant? Choose the correct answer below and fill in any answer boxes within your choice.
?(Round to one decimal place as? needed.)
A.
No. A? 95% confidence interval for the mean score using the software is
left parenthesis nothing comma nothing right parenthesis,.
?Students' scores improved by no more than 5 points on the exam. This might not be enough to justify the cost.
B.
Yes. A? 95% confidence interval for the mean score using the software is
left parenthesis nothing comma nothing right parenthesis,.
?Students' scores improved by at least 5 points on the exam. These improvements may be worth the cost of the software.
C.
No. A? 95% confidence interval for the mean score using the software is
left parenthesis nothing comma nothing right parenthesis,.
The change is not statistically significant.? Students' scores may not improve at all in the long run. The software is not worth the cost.
