Question

Bank of America’s Consumer Spending Survey collected data on annual credit card changes in seven different categories of expenditures: transportation, groceries, dining out, household expenses, home furnishings, apparel, and entertainment. Using data from a sample of 42 credit card accounts, assume that each account was used to identify the annual credit card charges for groceries (population 1) and the annual credit card charges for dining out (population 2). Using the difference data, the sample mean difference was 850$=d(Note: d= difference = groceries –dining out charges) and the same standard deviation was 1123$=ds.d= Difference = groceries charges –dining out charges.
