Chapter 14.3, Problem 1Q

The average energy expenditures for eight elderly women were estimated on the basis of information received from a battery-powered heart rate monitor that each subject wore. Two overall averages were calculated

Average Daily Energy Expenditures (kcal)
Subject Summer, x i Winter, y i
1 1458 1424
2 1352 1501
3 2209 1495
4 1804 1739
5 1912 2031
6 1366 934
7 1598 1401
8 1406 1339

for each woman, one for the summer months and one for the winter months (164), as shown in the following table. Let μ D denote the location difference between the summer and winter energy expenditure populations. Compute y i x i , i = 1 , 2 , .... , 8 and use the Wilcoxon signed rank procedure to test

H 0 : μ D = 0

versus

H 0 : μ D 0

Let a = 0.15.
