a) A statistics professor would like to determine whether students in the class showed improved performance on the final exam as compared to the midterm examination. A random sample of 7 students selected from a large class revealed the following scores: midterm 70, 62, 57, 68, 89, 63, 82 and on the final 80, 79, 87, 88, 85, 79, 91. We will test to determine if there evidence of an improvement on the final examination, at the 1% significance level. What is the alternate hypothesis?

(Uf does nto equal Um, where f+final and M=midterm, Uf<Um, Um>Uf, Uf>Um)
