Question: The following table presents the mean cumulative weight loss in grams for 60 patients receiving propranolol and for 121 control patients following sweating during insulin-induced hypoglycemia.

Mean loss weight between treatment and control for 91 patients during insulin induced hypoglycemia

Intervention N Mean Weight Loss
(in grams)
Standard Deviation
Propranolol 60 178 26.0
Control 121 147 25.0

Note: y ou can assume equal variances between the two groups

  1. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight loss for each group.
  2. Using a two-sided alternative, do the data present sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean cumulative weight loss is different for the two groups? (Use = 0.05)
  3. Write out your conclusion in words as you would present them in a report of the findings.
  4. Perform the same hypothesis test changing the significance (alpha) level to .01 ( =0.01). Does your result change?
