Question
You need to test whether the average mealtime spending of American tourists​ (population 1) is greater than that for British tourists​ (population 2). Assume that you have a sample of
n1=7
with sample mean
X1=40
and a sample standard deviation of
S1=6,
and you have an independent sample of
n2=16
from another population with a sample mean of
X2=31
and sample standard deviation
S2=5.
