Question
A random sample of n1 = 16 communities in western Kansas gave the following information for people under 25 years of age.
x1: Rate of hay fever per 1000 population for people under 25
99 | 89 | 119 | 130 | 94 | 123 | 112 | 93 |
125 | 95 | 125 | 117 | 97 | 122 | 127 | 88 |
A random sample of n2 = 14 regions in western Kansas gave the following information for people over 50 years old.
x2: Rate of hay fever per 1000 population for people over 50
93 | 111 | 99 | 96 | 110 | 88 | 110 |
79 | 115 | 100 | 89 | 114 | 85 | 96 |

B) Find (or estimate) the P-value.
a) P-value > 0.250
b) 0.125 < P-value < 0.250
c) 0.050 < P-value < 0.125
d) 0.025 < P-value < 0.050
