There is no basis contained in the information you have provided to be able to make such a determination.
You did not provide any of the population parameters or any sample statistics. You provided no basis upon which to choose an appropriate hypothesis test. You provided no information upon which to choose an appropriate level of significance.
The fact that you posted this question as you did shows a complete lack of understanding of any of the basic concepts of statistics. My advice to you is to drop out of this course immediately; stop wasting your time, your classmates' time, your instructor's time, and my time.
