Really have no idea where to start :(
In an experiment comparing two weight-loss regimes A and B 20 test subjects were matched into 10 pairs so that within each pair the subjects were as similar as possible. Then A was randomly allocated to one of the subjects in each pair, and then B allocated to the other. The number of kilograms lost for each person is obtained and then the ordered A−B differences for each pair (in kg) are given below in the object d, together with some summary statistics:
sort(d) [1] -0.9 -0.3 0.2 0.4 0.6 1.2 1.4 3.3 3.5 4.3
mean(d) [1] 1.37
sd(d) [1] 1.755025
By specifying and checking (with a boxplot) an appropriate normality assumption perform a formal hypothesis test of H0:“regimes the same” against H1:“regimes not the same”.
Any help is appreciated!

1.Make a box plot. You can do a rough check of normality by verifying that the upper and lower quartiles are approximately 0.7 standard deviations from the mean and that extreme outliers are less than 4 standard deviations from the mean. The box plot should look symmetric.
2.If the data appear normal, then calculate the t-statistic: , where we are assuming the mean difference will be zero.
3.Look up the T-value in a t-distribution table (using 9 degrees of freedom) at 0.05 significance, call this
If your |T|>|K|, reject the null.

A statistic is an unbiased estimator of a parameter when (a) the statistic is calculated from a random sample. (b) in a single sample, the value of the statistic is equal to the value of the parameter. (c) in many samples, the values of the statistic are very close to the value of the parameter. (d) in many samples, the values of the statistic are centered at the value of the parameter. (e) in many samples, the distribution of the statistic has a shape that is approximately NormalFind the mean of the following data: 12,10,15,10,16,12,10,15,15,13.
