A clinical trial was conducted to test the effectiveness of a drug used for treating insomnia in older subjects. After treatment with the drug, 23 subjects had a mean wake time of 91.1 min and a standard deviation of 42.4 min. Assume that the 23 sample values appear to be from a normally distributed population and construct a 98% confidence interval estimate of the standard deviation of the wake times for a population with the drug treatments. Does the result indicate whether the treatment is effective? Find the confidence interval estimate. min<σ< ☐ min (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
