The systolic blood pressure (BP) of the women was measured in 2011 and in a follow-up in 2014. The researcher wants to know, if, on average, the systolic BP of the poorest women in 2014 is significantly greater than the systolic BP of the same cohort in 2011.
2011 - sample size = 104, mean = 115.04, standard deviation = 14.934, std error mean = 1.464
2014 - sample size = 104, mean = 127, standard deviation = 13.350, std error mean 1.309

A resting systolic blood pressure (BP) of 120 mm Hg is stated to be the population mean for women. This was based on research conducted by several researchers on women from the healthy general public. Consider 20 first-year resident female doctors drawn at random. The resting systolic BP measured using an electronic sphygmomanometer are listed below. Is the sample significantly different from the population? State the null and alternative hypotheses Set the criteria for a decision: two-tailed test with a...
- Blood Pressure For women aged 18–24, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are nor- mally distributed with a mean of 114.8 and a standard deviation of 13.1 (based on data from the National Health Survey). Hypertension is commonly defined as a sys- tolic blood pressure above 140. a. If a woman between the ages of 18 and 24 is randomly selected, find the probabil- ity that her systolic blood pressure is greater than 140. b. If 4 women in...
21.HE.B: Captopril is a drug designed to lower systolic blood pressure. When subjects were treated with this drug, their systolic blood pressure readings (in mm Hg) were measured before and after the drug was taken. The results are in the accompanying table on the next page. (a) Go through “The Drill” for paired t-tests (Use a 0.05 α-level and the corresponding confidence interval.) The Drill: Assumptions and Conditions Paired Data Condition The data must be paired. Only use pairing if...
1. (55 points) The investigators are interested in asses the relationship between Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) in mm Hg and Age in years among Hypertensive Patients. Specif- ically, whether a patient's SBP can be predicted from his or her age. They selected n=122 patients at random from a medical record database in a hospital. Assume that the simple linear regression model is appropriate. The following table shows regression output of a simple linear regression model relating the SBP to the...
