  To test this using a 0.05 level of significance, a randomly selected group of students took both tests and had their scores recorded. The following data were obtained:Student Test A Test B1 78 822 86 743 74 794 72 935 75 806 68 827 77 99Based on these data, the test statistic is approximately t = -1.892. Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2
