Before treatment, 18 subjects had a mean wake time of 100.0min. After treatment, the 18 subjects had a mean wake time of 75.7 min and a standard deviation of 20.4 min. Assume that the 18 sample values appear to be from anormally distributed population and construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments. What does the resultsuggest about the mean wake time of 100.0 min before the treatment? Does the drug appear to be effective?Construct the 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with the treatment.min<μ

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 42 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.7 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 45 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.4 feet. At a = 0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) rari rz (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s).

The manager at a drive through has implemented a new process and wants to check if the new drive through process has a mean less than 188.83 seconds. The overall std. deviation of all the stores across the globe is 20 seconds. He has taken a sample of 39 and found the mean time to be 186.90 seconds. What does the hypothesis test lead to? Is there evidence to suggest the process has really improved?
