A researcher wants to conduct a study to test whether listening to soothing music for 20 minutes helps to reduce
diastolic blood pressure in patients with high blood pressure, compared to simply sitting quietly in a noise-free
environment for 20 minutes. One hundred patients with high blood pressure at a large medical clinic are
available to participate in this study.
(a) Propose a design for this study to compare these two treatments.
(b) The null hypothesis for this study is that there is no difference in the mean reduction of diastolic blood
pressure for the two treatments and the alternative hypothesis is that the mean reduction in diastolic blood
pressure is greater for the music treatment. If the null hypothesis is rejected, the clinic will offer this music
therapy as a free service to their patients with high blood pressure. Describe Type I and Type II errors and
the consequences of each in the context of this study, and discuss which one you think is more serious.

The school track has eight lanes. each lane is 1.25 meters wide. the arc at each end of the track is 180. the distance of the home straight and the radii for the arcs in the 1st 4 lanes are given. s=85m r1=36.5m r2=37.75m r3=39m r4=40.25m part one: find the radii of lanes 5 through 8 of the track. show your work. part two: if max ran around lane one, how far did he run? show your work and explain your solution. part three: max wants to run a total of three laps around the track, choose two additional lanes (2-8) for him to run and find the distance around those two lanes. show your work and round to the hundredths. part 4: based on your lane choices in part three, what was the total distance max ran in the three laps around the track?
