Over a period of 10weeks, a veterinarian took blood glucose reading from a horse, finding a mean of 93.8 mg/100 ml. and a standards deviation of 12.5 mg/ml. The mean glucose level for a healthy horse is 85 mg/ml. a. Perform a test of hypothesis at a 80% confidence level. Use the p-value method and a two tailed test of hypothesis. b. Perform a test of hypothesis at a 90% confidence level. Use the critical value method and a right tailed test.
