A researcher is testing the effect of a new cold and flu medication on reaction time. A sample of n=16 students is obtained and each student is given the normal dose of the medicine. Thirty minutes later, each student's reaction time is measured on a decision-making task. The sample average is calculated to be (M) milliseconds with a standard deviation equal to (S). Assuming that reaction time on this specific decision-making task for students in the population is known to be (µ) milliseconds, can the researcher conclude that the medication impacted reaction time? Use all of the data provided to you in the question below and test at an alpha of 0.05. M = 231.37 S = 28.18 µ = 199.06 n=16 In the text box, report the results of your study following the formatting taught in class
