In
a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 47
subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form.
Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment.
The changes (before - after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in
mg/dL) have a mean of 3.2 and a standard deviation of 19.3.
Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change
in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. What does the
confidence interval suggest about the effectiveness of garlic in
reducing LDL cholesterol?
