A student project investigated this effect by asking 25 right handed students to turn a knob with their right hands that moved an indicator by screw action. There were two identical instruments, one with a right-hand thread and the other with a left-hand thread.  The table given has the data from the student project. A. Each student used both instruments, describe how you would use randomization in designing the experiment. B. The student hoped to show that right handed people find right hand threads easier to use. Carry out a 5% significance test to investigate this claim. C. Describe a Type I and Type II error in this case and a consequence of both. D. Calculate and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mean time advantage of right hand over left hand threads in the setting above.
