An adviser is testing out a new online learning module for a placement test. They wish to test the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores at a significance level of = 0.05. For the context of this problem, _D=_new-_oldwhere the first data set represents the new test scores and the second data set represents old test scores. Assume the population is normally distributed.

H₀: _D= 0

H₁: _D< 0

You obtain the following paired sample of 19 students that took the placement test before and after the learning module:

Choose the correct decision and summary and state the p-value.

Question 1 options:

Do not reject H₀, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores, the p-value = 0.4533.

Reject H₀, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores,the p-value = 0.2266.

Do not reject H₀, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores, the p-value = 0.2266

Reject H₀, there is enough evidence to support the claim that on average the new online learning module increased placement scores,the p-value = 0.4533.
