Question

Use the t-distribution to find a confidence interval for a difference in means y, - M, given the relevant sample results. Give the best

estimate for 41 - M2, the margin of error, and the confidence interval. Assume the results come from random samples from

populations that are approximately normally distributed.

A 99% confidence interval for My - A using the sample results x1 = 546, S, = 117, m, = 340 and X2 = 451,52 = 90, M2 = 200

Enter the exact answer for the best estimate and round your answers for the margin of error and the confidence interval to two

decimal places.

Best estimate =

Margin of error =

Confidence interval

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
