A pharmaceutical company claims that its new drug reduces systolic blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure (in millimeters of mercury) for nine patients before taking the new drug and 22 hours after taking the drug are shown in the table below. Using this data, find the 99%99% confidence interval for the true difference in blood pressure for each patient after taking the new drug. Assume that the blood pressures are normally distributed for the population of patients both before and after taking the new drug.
