A sample of n=25 individuals is randomly selected from a population with a mean of u=65, and a treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M=70.
a. If the sample standard deviation is s=10, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with a critical value of .05?
b. If the sample standard deviation is s=20, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with a critical value or .05?
