A pharmaceutical company claims that its new drug reduces systolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure (in millimeters of mercury) for nine patients before taking the new drug and 2 hours after taking the drug are shown in the table below. Is there enough evidence to support the company's claim? Let d = (blood pressure before taking new drug)-(blood pressure after taking new drug) . Use a significance level of a = 0.1 for the test. Assume that the systolic blood pressure levels are normally distributed for the population of patients both before and after taking the new drug.

One of the measurements used to determine the health of a person's lungs is the amount of air a person can exhale under force in one second. This is called forced expiratory volume in one second, and is abbreviated FEV,. Assume the mean FEV, for 10-year-old boys is 2.1 liters that the population standard deviation is o =0.2. A random sample of 53 10-year-old boys live in a community with high levels of ozone pollution are found to have a sample mean FEV, of 2.09 liters. Can you conclude that the mean FEV, in the high-pollution community differs from 2.1 liters? (A) Yes (B) No
Please solve for p value ,determine weather to reject hypothesis and state the conclusion for enough evidence

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Question: If a participant has the same corneal thickness in their normal eye as the eye with Glaucoma, what would be the value for difference: measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma.
Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. This may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma. Over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken eight blood tests for uric acid. The mean concentration was = 3.5 mg/dl. The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.85 mg/dl. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient’s blood. What is the margin of error? What conditions are necessary for your calculations? Interpret results in the context of this problem. Sample Size Find the sample size necessary for a 95% confidence level with maximal margin of error E=1.10 for the mean concentration of uric acid in this patient’s blood.
The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the population of young men aged 20 to 34 years is close to Normal with standard deviation ? = 45 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). You measure the blood cholesterol of 13 cross-country runners. The mean level is x = 174 mg/dL. Assume that ? is the same as in the general population. How large a sample is needed to cut the margin-of-error in half for a 90% confidence interval of the mean level ? among the cross-country runners?
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Question:If the t statistic falls below the effect size in which we reject the null, but the p value is greater than 0.05. Do i reject the null? As my scenario had no population mean because the differences were recorded, do i set a test value of 10 or keep it at 0?
