can you do this problem please

8. A fitness course claims that it can improve an individual's physical ability. To test the effect of a physical fitness course on one's physical ability, the number of sit-ups that a person could do in one minute, both before and after the course, was recorded. Ten Individuals are randomly selected to participate in the course. The results are displayed in the following table. Can it be concluded, from the data, that participation in the physical fitness course resulted in significant improvement? Let d = number of sit-ups that can be done after taking the course) - (number of sit-ups that can be done prior to taking the course). Use a significance level of a = 0.05 for the test. Assume that the numbers of sit-ups are normally distributed for the population both before and after taking the fitness course. Sit-ups before 38 40 40 39 22 40 34 23 41 28 Sit-ups after 52 50 58 43 2953 51 34 5341 Step 1. State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Step 2. Find the value of the standard deviation of the paired differences. Round your answer to one decimal place. Answer: Step 3. Compute the value of the test statistie. Round your answer to three decimal places Answer: Step 4. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis No. Round the numerical portion of your answer to three decimal places. RW Step 5. Make the decision for the hypothesis test. A) Reject Null Hypothesis B) Fail to Reject Null Hypothesis
