A psychologist obtains a random sample of 18 mothers in the
first trimester of their pregnancy. The mothers are asked to play
classical music in the house at least 30 minutes each day until
they give birth. After 5​ years, the child is administered an IQ
test. It is known that IQs are normally distributed with a mean of
100. If the IQs of the 18 children in the study result in a sample
mean of 105.2 and sample standard deviation of 18​, is there
evidence that the children have higher​ IQs? Use the α=0.05 level
of significance.
