### Study on Estrogen Levels in Women

#### Problem 3: Estrogen Levels Analysis

A study of estrogen levels in two different groups of women finds the following results (in picograms per milliliter, pg/mL):

- **Group A:** 
  - Measurements: 18.7, 20.6, 20.7, 19.7, 19.9, 19.4, 20.2, 21.6, 18.8, 14.1, 21.6, 16.2, 21.7, 20.8, 19.3, 21.3, 19.9, 20.8, 23.2

- **Group B:**
  - Measurements: 15.2, 36.2, 27.5, 4.7, 24.5, 29.4, 25.9, 62.8

#### Summary Statistics

| Group   | Mean (\(\bar{y}\)) | Standard Deviation (\(s\)) | Sample Size (\(n\)) |
|---------|----------------------|--------------------------|---------------------|
| Group A | 19.921               | 2.0457                   | 19                  |
| Group B | 28.275               | 16.9169                  | 8                   |

#### Hypothesis Testing

Is there a difference in estrogen levels between the two groups?

- **Test Used:** Welch's t-test
- **Degrees of Freedom (d.f.):** 7.0864
- **Significance Level (\(\alpha\))**: 0.05

---

#### Problem 4: Equal Variance Assumption

Repeat the analysis from Problem 3, but this time assume equal variances. Use the same significance level (\(\alpha\)) as before.
