SCENARIO 10-4
Two Samples Each of Size 25 Are Taken $\mu$

question 256

Short Answer

SCENARIO 10-4
Two samples each of size 25 are taken from independent populations assumed to be normally distributed with equal variances.The first sample has a mean of 35.5 and standard deviation of 3.0 while the second sample has a mean of 33.0 and standard deviation of 4.0.
-Referring to Scenario 10-4, if you were interested in testing against the one-tail alternative that $\mu$ 1 $\gt$ $\mu$ 2 at the $\alpha$ = 0.01 level of significance, the null hypothesis would (be rejected/notbe rejected).
