Question:
Suppose that a researcher is interested in whether an exercise improves intelligence. The researcher randomly selects 100 participants, assigns them to an exercise program, and measures intelligence at the end of the exercise program.

a. What hypothesis test should the researcher use to evaluate whether the treatment affected intelligence?
b. If σ and σ2 were unknown, what hypothesis test should be used?
