Independent random samples of 32 people living on the west side of a city and 30 people living on the east side of a city were taken to determine if the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents. Given the testing statistics below, determine if the data provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents, at the 2% significance level.

• H0:w=e Ha:we
• t0=2.364
• t0.01=2.099

1. No; the test statistic is not between the critical values.
2. No; the test statistic is between the critical values.
3. Yes; the test statistic is not between the critical values.
4. Yes; the test statistic is between the critical values.
