Question

The effectiveness of a blood-pressure drug is being investigated. An experimenter finds that, on average, the reduction in systolic blood pressure is 56.6 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) for a sample of size 901 and a sample standard deviation 19.4 mmHg. How much of mmHg will lower for a typical patient's systolic blood pressure after taking the drug? Estimate with a 98% confidence. Preliminary: a. Is it safe to assume that n ? 5% of all patients with a systolic blood pressure? Yes No b. Is n ? 30? No Yes Confidence Interval: What is the 98% confidence interval to estimate the population mean? Round your answer to one decimal place. < ? < Question Help: Message instructor Check Answer
