The null and alternate hypotheses are: H0: 1 = 2 H1: 1 2 A random sample
Question:
H0: µ1 = µ2
H1: µ1 ≠ µ2
A random sample of 15 observations from the first population revealed a sample mean of 350 and a sample standard deviation of 12. A random sample of 17 observations from the second population revealed a sample mean of 342 and a sample standard deviation of 15. At the .10 significance level, is there a difference in the population means?
