Running Shoes. A shoe designer tests a new material for the soles of their most popular line of running shoes. She has 6 athletes run 100 miles with one of last years shoes and one of these new shoes, randomly assigning the new shoe to the left or right foot. Afterward, she measures the amount of wear on each of the shoes in millimeters. Test the claim that the amount of wear with the new material is different from the amount of wear with the old material.
