1. A clinician claims that, on average, the blood pressure of hypertensive patients is 150. A particular doctor believes the amount is more than 150. Then he selected a random sample of 100 patients and found that the sample have average of 155 with standard deviation of 10. Conduct the test at the 0.05 of significance. a) Hypotheses HO: vs. HA a) Test statistic b) P-value c) Conclusion d) What is the power of the test conditions to identify a significant difference if the population mean was actually 152 at α=0.05 (two sided)? e) How large a sample is needed for a one-sample z test with 80% power and α = 0.05 (two-tailed) when σ = 10?

Drugs are often used for reducing the blood pressure of hypertensive patients (those with high blood pressure). An experiment was run to investigate the effect of Drug (A or B) and Dose Level (Low or High) on the reduction in blood pressure. The experiment was conducted separately for the 36 patients who had mild hypertension and the 24 patients who had severe hypertension as the researcher suspected that results may differ for the two groups. For this design, there are:

A pharmaceutical company claims that its new drug reduces systolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure (in millimeters of mercury) for nine patients before taking the new drug and 2 hours after taking the drug are shown in the table below. Is there enough evidence to support the company's claim? Let d = (blood pressure before taking new drug) − (blood pressure after taking new drug). Use a significance level of α = 0.05 for the test. Assume that the...

A pharmaceutical company claims that its new drug reduces systolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure (in millimeters of mercury) for nine patients before taking the new drug and 2 hours after taking the drug are shown in the table below. Using this data, find the 99% confidence interval for the true difference in blood pressure for each patient after taking the new drug. Assume that the blood pressures are normally distributed for the population of patients both before and...
