The data below are yields for two different types of corn seed that were used on adjacent plots of land. Assume that the data are simple random samples and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the difference between type 1 and type 2 yields. What does the confidence interval suggest about farmer Joe's claim that type 1 seed is better than type 2 seed? Type 1 2008 1884 2102 2542 2076 1902 2214 1496 Type 2 2035 1913 2099 2437 2111 1938 2168 1496 In this example, μd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the type 1 seed yield minus the type 2 seed yield. The 95% confidence interval is _____<μd<______(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
