ITEC 1010 Study Guide - Final Guide: Variance, Confidence Interval
Let two independent random samples, each of size 10, from two normaldistributions N(μ1, σ2)
and N(μ2, σ2) yield = 4.8, = 8.64, y = 5.6, = 7.88.Find a 95% confidence interval for μ1
− μ2.
Step-1
From the given information,
and
Step-2
Let are random samples, from two normal distributions and
Then, the 95% confidence interval for is as follows:
Here, is the pooled sample variance,
Step-3
Substitute the values to obtained the 95% confidence interval, that is,
