Data Set 7 IQ and Lead in Appendix B lists full IQ scores for a random sample

Question:

Data Set 7 “IQ and Lead” in Appendix B lists full IQ scores for a random sample of subjects with low lead levels in their blood and another random sample of subjects with high lead levels in their blood. The statistics are summarized below.

a. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean IQ score of people with low blood lead levels is higher than the mean IQ score of people with high blood lead levels.
b. Construct a confidence interval appropriate for the hypothesis test in part (a).
c. Does exposure to lead appear to have an effect on IQ scores?

Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal.
