Comparing two treatments

Reference no: EM13112946

A study of postoperative pain relief is conducted to determine if drug A has a significantly longer duration of pain relief than drug B. Observations of the hours of pain relief are recorded for 55 patients given drug A and 58 patients given drug B. The summary statistics are

A B
Mean 4.64 4.03
Standard deviation 1.25 1.82

A) Formulate H(o) and H (1).

B) State the test statistic and the rejection region with x = .10.

C) State the conclusion of your test with x = .10. Also, find the P-value and comment.
