Question
The table provides summary statistics on highway fuel economy of cars manufactured in 2012 (from Exercise 5.32). Use these statistics to calculate a 98% confidence interval for the difference between average highway mileage of manual and automatic cars, and interpret this interval in the context of the data.

- We have developed a new drug used to reduce fever and want to test its efficacy. Ten ER patients who are running a fever agree to take the new drug instead of the traditional treatment. Their temperatures are taken before the drug is administered and 30 minutes after taking the drug. The results are recorded in the Excel file below. Use the data to construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the mean change in temperatures of patients after taking this drug using Excel. Be sure to include any explanation necessary along with a sentence that explains what the interval means.

- The design of controls and instruments affects how easily people can use them. A student project investigated this effect by asking 25 right handed students to turn a knob with their right hands that moved an indicator by screw action. There were two identical instruments, one with a right-hand thread and the other with a left-hand thread. The table given has the data from the student project.1. Calculate and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mean time advantage of right hand over left hand threads in the setting above.arrow_forwardThe NCHS reported that the mean total cholesterol level was 203 for all adults in 2003. Patients (n=15) were enrolled in a 6-week study to test the efficacy of a new drug. Use the five-step hypothesis testing procedure to determine if the new drug was effective in reducing the cholesterol levels compared to the historical mean. At the end of 6 weeks: ◦n = 15 ◦X ̅ = 195.9 ◦s = 28.7arrow_forward
