Suppose a job placement firm would like to know if the 2015 average starting salary for chemical engineer majors is higher than the 2015 average starting salary for electrical engineering majors. To conduct its test, the job placement has selected a random sample of 124 electrical engineering majors and 110 chemical engineering majorswhograduated and received jobs in 2015. Each graduate was asked to report his or her starting salary. The results are the survey are contained in the data set.
A) Conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean starting salary for 2015 graduates in chemical engineering is higher than the mean starting salary is for 2015 graduates in electrical engineering. Conduct a test at the 0.05 level of significance. Be sure to state a conclusion. (Assume that the firm believes the two populations from which the samples were taken are approximately normally distributed with equal variances.)
B) Suppose the job placement firm is unwilling to assume that the two populations are normally distributed with equal variances. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test to determine whether a differences exists between the mean starting salaries for the two groups. Use the level of significance of 0.05. What conclusion should the job placement firm reach based on the hypothesis test?
