The difference between the sample means of two populations is 34.6, and the standard deviation of the difference between sample means is 11.9. What is the 95% confidence interval

Respuesta :

Answer:

The required interval is [tex]10.8\leq CI \leq 58.4[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The difference between the sample means of two populations is 34.6, and the standard deviation of the difference between sample means is 11.9.

To find : What is the 95% confidence interval lies between ?

Solution :

Let [tex]\mu_1,\mu_2[/tex] were two sample means.

The difference between the sample means of two populations is 34.6

i.e.  [tex]\mu_1-\mu_2=34.6=\mu[/tex]

Let [tex]\sigma_1,\sigma_2[/tex] were two standard deviation.

The difference between the standard deviation of two populations is 11.9

i.e.  [tex]\sigma_1-\sigma_2=11.9=\sigma[/tex]

The confidence interval at 95% is 2 dimension,

So, The formula to find class interval is

[tex]\mu-2\sigma\leq CI \leq \mu+2\sigma[/tex]

[tex]34.6-2(11.9)\leq CI \leq 34.6+2(11.9)[/tex]

[tex]34.6-23.8\leq CI \leq 34.6+23.8[/tex]      

[tex]10.8\leq CI \leq 58.4[/tex]      

Therefore, The required interval is [tex]10.8\leq CI \leq 58.4[/tex]      

Answer: -23.8,23.8
