Question

you wish to test the following claim (Ha) at a significance level of α=0.10.

      Ho:μ1−μ2=0
      Ha:μ1−μ2≠0

You obtain a sample of size n1=88 with a mean of ¯x1=70.4 and a standard deviation of s1=17.9 from the first population. You obtain a sample of size n2=35 with a mean of ¯x2=78.1 and a standard deviation of s2=6.5 from the second population.

You will need to determine whether or not to pool so you will use the correct df.
What is the critical value for this test? Report answer accurate to three decimal places.
critical value = ±
