The resulting data are given in the table shown below. Assume that the population is normally distributed. It is known that s_before = 3.237 and s_after = 2.507.

Weekly Study in Hours of Students Who Perform Well on the testtt
Students	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
Before	17	8	12	11	17	13	14
After	10	8	9	10	15	13	9
