Is the flu making us sicker? A question of interest at the latest health summit was whether the latest strain of flu was causing adults to run a higher fever than previous strains. The average temperature for previous strains of flu was 101.4 degrees. A random sample of eighteen adults with the latest strain of flu was obtained. The data below represents their highest temperature while sick with the latest flu strain. Based on the data, can we conclude that the latest strain of flu is causing patients to run a higher fever, on average, than previous strains of flu? Let the probability of making a Type-I error be 10%. 102.1 101.8 100.9 103.8 102.8 100.8 102.5 102.0 103.1 104.0 104.2 101.1 100.3 101.9 101.7 101.8 102.3 104.1
