(a) What is a 95% confidence interval for u1- µ2 ?
Lower Bound (Limit)
Upper Bound (Limit)
(Use the conservative value for the degrees of freedom and round it to two decimal places)
(b) At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean GPAS of sophomores and
juniors at the university differ? In other words, the school will test HO: µ1 = µ2, Ha: µ1 # µ2 where 1=sophomore and 2 = junior
(Assume that two sample t-procedures are safe to use, unequal variance).
The numerical value of the two-sample t statistic is: (use the conservative value for the degrees of freedom).
(c) What is the P-value of this test?
1) Conclusion of the test:
(d) What is your conclusion of the test? (statistical conclusion and its interpretation). Is it consistent with the conclusion of a
95% confidence interval for µ1-µ2? (Note: "Consistency" means the conclusion of test of significance is the same as the
conclusion of the confidence interval. So, need to find yourself what the conclusion of Cl is)
2) Consistent?
