Data on the numbers of hospital admissions resulting from motor vehicle crashes are given below for Fridays on the 6th of a month and Fridays on the following 13th of the same month. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Construct a​ 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean of the population of differences between hospital admissions. Use the confidence interval to test the claim that when the 13th day of a month falls on a​ Friday, the numbers of hospital admissions from motor vehicle crashes are not affected


Friday_the_6th Friday_the_13th
4 14
9 14
9 13
12 11
10 10


In this​ example, μd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of​ data, where each individual difference d is defined as the number of hospital admissions on Friday the 6th minus the number of hospital admissions on Friday the 13th. Find the​ 95% confidence interval.


​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)


Based on the confidence​ interval, can one reject the claim that when the 13th day of a month falls on a​ Friday, the numbers of hospital admissions from motor vehicle crashes are not​ affected?
