An engineer working for a large agribusiness has developed two types of soil additives he calls Add1 and Add2. The engineer wants to test whether there is any difference between the two additives in the mean yield of tomato plants grown using these additives. The engineer studies a random sample of 11 tomato plants grown using Add1 and a random sample of 13 tomato plants grown using Add2. (These samples are chosen independently.) The plants grown with Add1 have a sample mean yield of 139 tomatoes with a sample variance of 510. The plants grown with Add2 have a sample mean yield of 151.2 tomatoes with a sample variance of 2178.8. Assume that the two populations of yields are approximately normally distributed. Can the engineer conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that there is a difference between the population mean of the yields of tomato plants grown with Add1 and the population mean of the yields of tomato plants grown with Add2? Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
