Flag question: Question 39Question 391 pts The owner of a local nightclub has recently surveyed a random sample of n = 300 customers of the club. She would now like to determine whether or not the mean age of her customers is over 35. If so, she plans to alter the entertainment to appeal to an older crowd. If not, no entertainment changes will be made. Suppose she found that the sample mean was 35.5 year and population standard deviation was 5 years.

In one double-blind study Lipitor outperformed niacin. The 95% confidence interval estimate of the difference in mean cholesterol level lowering was (18, 41). Which of the following is a reasonable conclusion?Group of answer choicesWe should be 95% confident that Lipitor will outperform niacin as a cholesterol-lowering drug. There is a .95 probability that Lipitor will outperform niacin by at least 23 points in lowering the cholesterol level of any given individual. There is a .95 probability that Lipitor will outperform niacin in lowering the cholesterol level of any given individual. Niacin lowers cholesterol an average of 18 points, while Lipitor lowers cholesterol an average of 41 points. None of these is correct. MathStatistics and ProbabilityDSI LYTCShare Question
