Question: The Dean of the John Sperling Undergraduate School of Business at UOP is concerned about the possibility of burnout with the students near the end of their program. The grades for a two session class are below, and the Dean wants to know if the grades have decreased in the second session:

Student Session 1 Session 2

1 2.7 3.1

2 3.4 3.3

3 3.5 3.3

4 3.0 2.9

5 2.1 1.8

6 2.7 2.4

Assume a .05 level of significance, can the Dean conclude that the grades have decreased during the second session?

(Show all your work and if using a calculator, state the formulae you used.)

1. State the null and Alternate Hypothesis both in symbols and in words.
2. Find the rejection region. (i.e, State at which point you will reject the null hypothesis?)
3. State which statistic is to be used and then calculate it.
4. Do you Reject or Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis? What can the Dean conclude?
