Answer:
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that drug is effective at 1%
Step-by-step explanation:
For this we use the pored test as we have dependent test;
Difference :
10,5,-5,3,-3,4,2,-3,0,10,8,-2,3,-2,5,5,4,0
Hypothesis :
H0 : μd = 0
H0 : μd ≠ 0
The mean of d, dbar = Σd / n = 44 / 18 = 2.44
The standard deviation, Sd = 4.45 (using calculator)
The test statistic, T : dbar / (Sd/√n)
T = 2.44 / (4.45/√18)
T = 2.44 / 1.0488750
T = 2.326
Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 18 - 1 = 17
The Pvalue = 0.0326
α = 0.01
Since Pvalue < α ; we fail to reject H0
