A question of medical interest is whether jogging leads to a reduction in systolic blood
pressure. To learn about this question, eight non-jogging volunteers have agreed to
begin a 1-month jogging program. At the end of the month, their blood pressures
were determined and compared with earlier values. The data are presented in the
