In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences isapproximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedomd.f. not in the Student's t table, usethe closest d.f. that is smaller. Insome situations, this choice of d.f. may increasethe P-value by a small amount and therefore produce aslightly more \"conservative\" answer.
