John is interested in determining if a new teaching method, the involvement technique, is effective in teaching algebra to first graders.

John randomly samples six first graders from all first graders within the Lawrence City School System and individually teaches them algebra with the new method. Next, the pupils complete an eight-item algebra test. Each item describes a problem and presents four possible answers to the problem.

Conduct a one-sample t-test on the total scores. On the output, identify the following:

a. Mean algebra score

b. T value

c. P value
