A hypertension trial is mounted and 12 participants are randomly assigned to receive either a new treatment or a placebo. Each participant takes the assigned medication and their systolic blood pressure (SBP) is recorded after 6 months on the assigned treatment. The data are as follows. Placebo New Treatment 132 114 143 119 148 121 144 124 155 126 160 128 Is there a difference in mean SBP between treatments? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Give each of the following to receive full credit : 1) the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses; 2) the appropriate test; 3) the decision rule; 4) the calculation of the test statistic ; and 5) your conclusion including a comparison to alpha or the critical value. You MUST show your work to receive full credit. Partial credit is available.

The coach of a very popular men’s basketball team claims that the average distance the fans travel to the campus to watch a game is 35 miles. The team members feel otherwise. A sample of 16 fans who travel to games was randomly selected and yielded a mean of M= 36 miles and s= 5 miles. Test the coach’s claim at the 5% (.05) level of significance. one-tailed or two-tailed test: State the hypotheses: df= tα or t value for the critical region = sM = t (test statistic)= Decision:
