Confidence Interval for Hemoglobin Large samples of women and men are obtained and the hemoglobin level is measured in each subject. Here is the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means, where the measures from women correspond to population 1 and the measures from men correspond to population 2:

-1.76 g>dL 6 m1 - m2 6 -1.62 g>dL.

a. What does the confidence interval suggest about equality of the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in men?

b. Write a brief statement that interprets that confidence interval.

c. Express the confidence interval with measures from men being population 1 and measures from women being population 2.
