In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the dosest df. that is smaller. In some stuations, this cholce of d.f. may Increase the P-value by a smal amount and therefore produce a
slightly more "conservative answer.
The western United States has a number of four-lane Interstate highways that cut through long tracts of wilderness. To prevent car accidents with wild animals, the highways are bordered on both sides with 12-foot-high woven wire fences. Athough the fences prevent accidents, they also
disturb the winter migration pattern of many anlmals. To compensate for this disturbance, the highways have frequent wilderness underpasses designed for exclusive use by deer, elk, and other animals. In Colorado, there is a large group of deer that spend their summer months in a reglon
on one side of a highway and survive the winter months in a lower regton on the other side. To determine if the highway has disturbed deer migration to the winter feeding area, the following data were gathered on a random sample of 10 wilderness districts in the winter feeding area. Row 8
represents the average January deer count for a 5-year perlod before the highway was built, and row A represents the average January deer count for a 5-year period after the highway was butlt. The highway department daims that the January population has not changed. Test this daim
against the dalm that the 3anuary population has dropped. Use a 5% level of significance. Units used in the table are hundreds of deer. (Let d=B- A.)
