Many cheeses are produced in the shape of a wheel. Because of the differences in consistency between these different types of cheese, the amount of cheese, measured by weight, varies from wheel to wheel. Heidi Cembert wishes to determine whether there is a significant difference, at the 10% level, between the weight per wheel of Gouda and Brie cheese. She randomly samples 18 wheels of Gouda and finds the mean is 1.3 lb with a standard deviation of 0.3 lb; she then randomly samples 10 wheels of Brie and finds a mean of 0.95 lb and a standard deviation of 0.21 lb. What is the df and p-value for Heidi's hypothesis of equality? Assume normality. (Give your answer correct to four decimal places.)
