Question

Two new drugs are being compared for effectiveness in lowering total cholesterol levels. On the sample of 15 subjects, drug A is found to lower total cholesterol by an average of 75 mg/dl with SS = 2025.

On the sample of 10 subjects, drug B lowered the mean cholesterol level by 78 mg/dl with SS = 2005.

Use a 0.01 level of significance to test the claim that the two drugs are equally effective assuming populations are normally distributed. ( Use equal variance t procedure called pooled variance t procedure )

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
