An experiment was conducted to test the effect of a new cholesterol medicine. Fifteen people were treated with medicine X and 15 with medicine Y for a month, then the subjects' cholesterol level was measured. A significance test was conducted at the a = 0.01 level for the difference in the means of the cholesterol levels between medicine X and medicine Y. The test resulted in t = 2.73 and p = 0.003. If the alternative hypothesis in question was Ha: px - μy ‡ 0, where µx equals the mean cholesterol level for subjects taking medicine X and μy equals the mean cholesterol level for subjects taking medicine Y, what conclusion can be drawn? O There is not a significant difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.
