True/False

Following is a sample of five matched pairs.
$\begin{array}{llllll}\hline \text { Sample 1 } & 23 & 20 & 19 & 22 & 22 \\\text { Sample 2 } & 19 & 17 & 20 & 20 & 15 \\\hline\end{array}$

Let $\mu _ { 1 }$ and $\mu _ { 2 }$ represent the population means and let $\mu _ { \mathrm { d } } = \mu _ { 1 } - \mu _ { 2 }$ . A test will be made of the hypotheses $H _ { 0 } : \mu _ { \mathrm { d } } = 0$ versus $H _ { 1 } : \mu _ { \mathrm { d } } > 0$ . Can you reject $H _ { 0 }$ at the $\alpha = 0.05$ level of significance?
