Is there a difference in underlying mean blood pressure by day for this participant?

An instructor in health education wants to familiarize her students with the measurement of blood pressure. Each student is given a portable blood-pressure machine to take home and is told to take two readings on each of 10 consecutive days. The data for one student are given in Table 12.34.
