In order to determine if treatment $X$ is successful in improving eyesight, a research study was conducted. From a large population of people with poor eyesight, 300 participants were selected at random. Half of the participants were randomly assigned to receive treatment $X$, and the other half did not receive treatment $\mathrm{X}$. The resulting data showed that participants who received treatment $X$ had significantly improved eyesight as compared to those who did not receive treatment $\mathrm{X}$. Based on the design and results of the study, which of the following is an appropriate conclusion?
A) Treatment $X$ is likely to improve the eyesight of people who have poor eyesight.
B) Treatment $X$ improves eyesight better than all other available treatments.
C) Treatment $X$ will improve the eyesight of anyone who takes it.

$$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \text{Minutes after} & \text{Penicillin concentration }\\ \text{injection}&\text{(micrograms per milliliter)} \\ \hline 0 & 200 \\ \hline 5 & 152 \\ \hline 10 & 118 \\ \hline 15 & 93 \\ \hline 20 & 74 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
When a patient receives a penicillin injection, the kidneys begin removing the penicillin from the body. The table and graph above show the penicillin concentration in a patient's bloodstream at 5 -minute intervals for the 20 minutes immediately following a one-time penicillin injection. The penicillin concentration, in micrograms per milliliter, in the patient's bloodstream $t$ minutes after the penicillin injection is modeled by the function $P$ defined by $P(t)=200 b^{\frac{1}{5}}$. If $P$ approximates the values in the table to within 10 micrograms per milliliter, what is the value of $b$, rounded to the nearest tenth?
