• H _ { 1 } : \mu 1 - \mu 2 \{ \geq , < , \text { or } = \} 0
• \end{array}\)
• B) \(\left.H_{0}: \mu 1-\mu 2, \geq, \leq \text { or }=\right\} 0\)
• \(H_{1}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2}\{>,<, \text { or } z\} 0\)
• C) \(\begin{array}{l}
• H_{0}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2}\{\geq, \leq \text {, or } z\} 0 \\
• H_{1}: \mu_{1}-\mu_{2}\{>,\leq, \text { or }=\} 0
• \end{array}\)
