A pharmacutical company is testing a new allergy medication. They will consider the drug to be effective if the percentage of patients in the treatment group whose symptoms get better is 15% more than the percentage of patients in the control group whose symptoms get better. For example, if 10% of patients in the control get better, and 30% of patients in the treatment group get better, they will consider the drug to be effective, since 30% - 10% = 20% > 15%.
After collecting data from 32 subjects who received the medication and 32 who did not, they find that a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the treatment and control group is (15%, 16%).
Interpret these findings: Select your answer from one of the following options.
