Effects of adding an exercise program


Researchers studied the effects of adding an exercise program to dieting in the achievement of weight loss. A sample of 45 men ages 18-20 (Group 1) were observed for weight loss using a diet only, and another independent sample of 52 men ages 18-20 (Group 2) were put on the same diet, but with an added exercise program. The mean weight loss for Group 1 was 8.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 4.1 pounds, and the mean weight loss for Group 2 was 16.9 pounds, with a standard deviation of 4.1 pounds. Calculate the upper bound of a 99% confidence interval for the difference in mean weight loss for the two groups.
