Short Answer

TABLE 10-3
A real estate company is interested in testing whether the mean time that families in Gotham have been living in their current homes is less than families in Metropolis. Assume that the two population variances are equal.

Gotham: G = 35 months, SG² = 900 Metropolis: M = 50 months, SM² = 1050
-Referring to Table 10-3, what is the 95% confidence interval estimate for the difference in the two means?
