A custodian wishes to compare two competing floor waxes to decide which one is best. He believes that the mean of WaxWin is not equal to the mean of WaxCo. In a random sample of 49 floors of WaxWin and 35 of WaxCo. WaxWin had a mean lifetime of 25.3 and WaxCo had a mean lifetime of 27.3. The population standard deviation for WaxWin is assumed to be 7.8 and the population standard deviation for WaxCo is assumed to be 10.2. Perform a hypothesis test using a significance level of 0.05 to help him decide. Let WaxWin be sample 1 and WaxCo be sample 2.
