Use the following information to answer next five exercises. A study was conducted to test the effectiveness of a juggling class. Before the class started, six subjects juggled as many balls as they could at once. After the class, the same six subjects juggled as many balls as they could.

What is the sample mean difference?
Use the following information to answer the next 12 exercises: The U.S. Center for Disease Control reports that the mean life expectancy was years for whites born in 1900 and 33.0 years for nonwhites. Suppose that you randomly survey death records for people born in 1900 in a certain
county. Of the 124 whites, the mean life span was years with a standard deviation of years. Of the 82 nonwhites, the mean life span was years with a standard deviation of 15.6
years. Conduct a hypothesis test to see if the mean life spans in the county were the same for whites and nonwhites.
Explain why you chose the distribution you did for Exercise 10.24.
