This statistics project analyzes the mathematics scores of male and female students from 1995 to 2010, addressing the question of whether their average scores are the same. An independent samples t-test was performed, revealing that male students generally perform better. The study includes a bar chart comparing average scores, a hypothesis statement (H0: μm=μf; HA: μm ≠ μf), and test results (t=14.508, p=0.000). The null hypothesis was rejected, concluding that the average scores differ. A confidence interval (.996 to 1.327) supports this conclusion. The project aligns with initial expectations of differing scores and suggests future studies with larger sample sizes for more comprehensive conclusions. The project uses an independent samples t-test to compare the average scores of the two groups. The findings from the hypothesis test and confidence intervals both support the conclusion that the average scores are different.
