Expert Solution
Step 1

From the output, the  mean difference between the SC(South Carolinians) and NC (North Carolinians)  amount of the sleep is 0.30.

Thus, the difference is 0.3 hours

 

Since, the difference is positive the mean difference of SC is greater than mean difference of NC.

Thus, correct option is

South Carolina (SC)

 

 

Step 2

From the data of the confidence level =0.95, 

The upper CL diff = 1.1925

The lower CL diff = -0.5925

 

Thus, 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean amount of the sleep is (-0.5925 hours, 1.1925 hours)
