  • In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t-table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative" answer.
