The effectiveness of a blood-pressure drug is being investigated. An experimenter finds that, on average, the reduction in systolic blood pressure is 79.9 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) for a sample of size 1025 and a sample standard deviation 6.7 mmHg. How much of mmHg will lower for a typical patient's systolic blood pressure after taking the drug? Estimate with a 95% confidence. Preliminary: a. Is it safe to assume that n ≤ 5% of all patients with a systolic blood pressure? O Yes O No b. Is n > 30? No O Yes Confidence Interval: What is the 95% confidence interval to estimate the population mean? Round your answer to one decimal place.
