Can you conclude with a high degree of confidence that the population means for Iowa and New Jersey students are​ different? A. Because of the extremely low p​-value, we cannot reject the null hypothesis with a very high degree of confidence.​ Hence, the population means for Iowa and New Jersey students are not different. B. Because of the extremely high p​-value, we can reject the null hypothesis with a very high degree of confidence.​ Hence, the population means for Iowa and New Jersey students are different. C. Because of the extremely low p​-value, we can reject the null hypothesis with a very high degree of confidence.​ Hence, the population means for Iowa and New Jersey students are different. D. Because of the extremely high p​-value, we cannot reject the null hypothesis with a very high degree of confidence.​ Hence, the population means for Iowa and New Jersey students are not different.

Answer:

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

  The  95% confidence interval of the mean  score of all  New Jersey third graders  is  (58.957 ,  63.043)

   The sample size is  n =  184

   The sample average is  [tex]\mu = 65 \ points[/tex]

   The standard deviation is   [tex]\sigma  =  13 \ points[/tex]

    The  90%  confidence interval for the difference in mean score between lowa and New Jersey is  (-6.33 ,  -1.67 )

   The  p-value is  [tex]p-value  =  0.0048[/tex]

Generally given that the p-values is very low compared to the level of significance (100 -90 =  10% = 0.10 )  we can reject the null hypothesis which is usually a  claim that the means of the  population are the same )

Hence the population means are different .
