Question

Practice For Two Sample T Test Procedure: Go through all of the hypothesis test steps in order to answer the question below: Example: Suppose we want to compare the true mean stopping times of two different types of brakes at 50 mph of a car of a certain type. The first type of brake is made from an enhanced synthetic material that is thought to improve braking distances. The second type of brake is made from material that has been in use before the enhanced material was designed. Do the following data support the claim that the brakes made from the enhanced material are superior to the brakes made from the other material? Sample on enhanced brakes: 6 cars tested, average braking distance 115.7 ft with a standard deviation of 5.03 ft. Sample on existing brakes: 7 cars tested, average braking distance 121.3 ft with a standard deviation of 5.38 ft. Before you begin the steps: What do you have to assume about the populations that are being sampled here? (This is important! You can’t do a t-test without these assumptions!) After you finish the steps: Calculate a 95% confidence interval on the mean difference in braking distance for the brakes.
