1.A study was conducted that compared the time to awaken from a general anesthetic for
ten orthopedic patients that had two knee replacements done in two separate surgeries,
with the anesthetic differing for surgeries on the first knee and the second knee. The
anesthetic used for the first knee replacement was the same for all 10 patients, as was the case for the second knee replacement in the patients. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. The study was interested in determining whether there was a difference in the time to awaken following surgery for the two different anesthetics. The data for the
ten patients are provided in the table below. Use these data to answer the question below
the table.
