A variable of two populations has a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 12 for one of the populations and a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 6 for the other population. Moreover, the variable is normally distributed on each of the two populations. (a)For independent samples of sizes 9 and 4, respectively, determine the mean and standard deviation of ?̅ 1 − ?̅ 2 (b)Can you conclude that the variable ?̅ 1 − ?̅ 2 is normally distributed? Explain your answer (c)Determine the percentage of all pairs of independent samples of sizes 9 and 4, respectively, from the two populations with the property that the difference ?̅ 1 − ?̅ 2 between the sample means is between -10 and 10
