PLEASE HELP FAST!! IT IS URGENT!! To estimate the benefits of an SAT prep course, a random sample of 10 students enrolled in the course is selected. For each of these students, their entrance score on the exam taken at the beginning of the course is recorded. Their exit score on the exam they take at the end of the course is recorded as well. The table displays the scores. Student Before After 1 2 3 4 5 6 800 870 860 820 1140 1050 1100 1010 1000 980 1410 1270 7 8 9 850 910 830 1020 1010 1060 10 1140 1340 The mean of the differences is 193 points, and the standard deviation of the differences is 62.73 points. The conditions for inference are met. A 98% confidence interval for the mean difference (after - before) in score is 137.04 points to 248.96 points. What is the correct interpretation of this interval?

A.98% of students in this sample increased their score, on average, by 137.04 to 248.96 points.
