To compare the means of two populations, independent random samples of 144 observations are selected from each population with the following results. Sample 1 Sample 2 1 = 7,123 2 = 6,957 s1 = 175 s2 = 225 Use a 95% confidence interval to estimate the difference between the population means. Interpret the confidence interval.
