A study was conducted to compare the prices of coffee tables at two different furniture stores. A random sample of 45 tables from Company A has the mean price of RM 1655 with a standard deviation of RM 312. Meanwhile, a sample of 50 tables that was randomly taken from Company B has the average price of RM 1538 with a standard deviation of RM 420. Assume the mean prices of coffee table from both furniture stores are normally distributed. a) Write the sampling distribution for the difference between mean prices for the two furniture stores. b) Find the probability that the mean price of coffee table from Company A is more than Company B by RM 80. c) Compute the probability that the mean price of coffee table from Company A is less than RM 1700.
