The effectiveness of a blood-pressure drug is being investigated. An experimenter finds that, on average, the reduction in systolic blood pressure is 79.9 for a sample of size 687 and standard deviation 15.6.


Estimate how much the drug will lower a typical patient's systolic blood pressure (using a 99% confidence level).


Enter your answer as a tri-linear inequality accurate to one decimal place (because the sample statistics are reported accurate to one decimal place).
