Question 1114983: Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements (mm Hg) taken from the right and left arms of the same woman. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.01 significance level to test for a difference between the measurements from the two arms. What can be concluded?
Right arm
143
151
144
135
130
Left arm
175
165
173
141
142
In this example, mu Subscript d is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the measurement from the right arm minus the measurement from the left arm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test?
