A researcher is testing reaction times between the dominant and non-dominant hand. They randomly
start with each hand for 20 subjects and their reaction times in milliseconds are recorded. Test to see
if the reaction time is faster for the dominant hand using a 5% level of significance. The hypotheses
are:

A physician wants to see if there was a difference in the average smokers' daily cigarette
consumption after wearing a nicotine patch. The physician set up a study to track daily smoking
consumption. In the study, the patients were given a placebo patch that did not contain nicotine for
4 weeks, then a nicotine patch for the following 4 weeks. Test to see if there was a difference in the
average smoker's daily cigarette consumption using α = 0.01. The hypotheses are:

The p-value for a one tailed test is 0.0001. This is given to you in the output.
No calculations are needed. 0.0001 < .05, Reject Ho, this is significant.

A math teacher tells her students that eating a healthy breakfast on a test day will help their brain
function and perform well on their test. During finals week, she randomly samples 45 students and
asks them at the door what they ate for breakfast. She categorizes 25 students into Group 1 as those
who ate a healthy breakfast that morning and 20 students into Group 2 as those who did not. After
grading the final, she finds that 48% of the students in Group 1 earned an 80% or higher on the test,
and 40% of the students in Group 2 earned an 80% or higher. Can it be concluded that eating a
healthy breakfast improves test scores? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

Use NORM.S.DIST(0.536656,TRUE) to find the for the lower tailed test.
0.704247, then 1 - 0.704247, this is the p-value you want to use for an upper
tailed test.
Two competing toothpaste brands both claim to produce the best toothpaste for whitening. A dentist
randomly samples 48 patients that use Brand A (Group 1) and finds 30 of them are satisfied with the
whitening results of the toothpaste. She then randomly samples 45 patients that use Brand B (Group
2) and finds 33 of them are satisfied with the whitening results of the toothpaste. Construct a 99%
confidence interval for the difference in proportions and use it to decide if there is a significant
difference in the satisfaction level of patients.
Enter the confidence interval - round to 3 decimal places.
