Independent random samples of professional football and basketball players gave the following information. Assume that the weight distributions are mound-shaped and symmetric.

Weights (in lb) of pro football players: x₁; n₁ = 21

247	263	254	251	244	276	240	265	257	252	282
256	250	264	270	275	245	275	253	265	271

Weights (in lb) of pro basketball players: x₂; n₂ = 19

204	200	220	210	191	215	221	216	228	207
225	208	195	191	207	196	181	193	201

(a) Use a calculator with mean and standard deviation keys to calculate x₁, s₁, x₂, and s₂. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

x₁ =
s₁ =
x₂ =
s₂ =

(b) Let ?₁ be the population mean for x₁ and let ?₂ be the population mean for x₂. Find a 99% confidence interval for ?₁ − ?₂. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)
