Researchers performed a study to address the question of whether
the mean body temperature of humans is 98.6 degrees °F.
Among other data, the researchers obtained the body
temperatures of 40 healthy humans, as provided in the accompanying
data table. 97.9, 97.5, 99.0, 98.1, 98.7, 98.8, 97.6, 98.5, 98.5,
98.8, 98.0, 98.2, 97.9, 98.0, 96.8, 97.4, 98.1, 98.0, 98.0, 98.7,
98.6, 98.8, 98.1, 97.0, 97.1, 97.2, 98.3, 97.7, 99.2, 97.8, 97.6,

A medical researcher believes that a drug changes the body's
temperature. Seven test subjects are randomly selected and the body
temperature of each is measured. The subjects are then given the
drug, and after 30 30 minutes, the body temperature of each is
measured again. The results are listed in the table below. Is there
enough evidence to conclude that the drug changes the body's
temperature? Let d=(body temperature before taking drug)−(body
temperature after taking drug) d = (body temperature...

A medical researcher attempted to learn if a disease is
accompanied by an increased in body temperature. She measured the
body temperature of 12 people diagnosed as having the disease and
obtained the following temperatures (in degrees F): 99.3, 99.1,
100.4, 98.4, 98.2, 98.9, 99.7, 100.1, 100.7, 99.0, 98.8, 99.2. Does
the mean body temperature of these individuals differ from a
hypothesized population mean of 98.6 degree F? Use a two-tailed
test and a 0.05 significance level
