A medical researcher wants to compare the pulse rates of smokers and non-smokers. He believes that the pulse rate for smokers and non-smokers is different and wants to test this claim at the 0.05 level of significance. A sample of 74 smokers has a mean pulse rate of 86, and a sample of 56 non-smokers has a mean pulse rate of 85. The population standard deviation of the pulse rates is known to be 6 for smokers and 10 for non-smokers. Let ?1 be the true mean pulse rate for smokers and ?2 be the true mean pulse rate for non-smokers. Step 1 of 5:State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.
Step 2 of 5: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Step 3 of 5: Find the p-value associated with the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Step 4 of 5 : reject or fail to reject null hypothesis
Step 5 of 5:State the conclusion of the hypothesis test.
a. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean pulse rate for smokers and non-smokers is different.
b. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean pulse rate for smokers and non-smokers is different.

Astudy was interested in determining if eating milk chocolate lowered someone's cholesterol levels. ten people's cholesterol was measured. then, each of these individuals were told to eat 100g of milk chocolate every day and to eat as they normally did. after two weeks, their cholesterol levels were measured again. is there evidence to support that their cholesterol levels went down? how should we write the alternative hypothesis? (mud = the population mean difference= before - after)a. ha: mud = 0b. ha: mud > 0c. ha: mud < 0d. ha: mud does not equal 0
