Question

A study was undertaken to compare the average high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels of normal and 
obese adults in a certain community. HDL levels of a random sample of adults from this community 
were measured (in milligrams per deciliter or mg/dL) and presented below.


Assume that the HDL levels of both the normal and obese adults follow the normal distribution with 
unknown but equal population variances. Is there a significant difference between the average HDL 
levels of normal and obese adults? Use a 5% level of significance.
