researcher compares the effectiveness of two different instructional methods for teaching anatomy. A sample of 201 students using Method 1 produces a testing average of 76.5. A sample of 244 students using Method 2 produces a testing average of 81.2. Assume that the population standard deviation for Method 1 is 18.88 while
A researcher compares the effectiveness of two different instructional methods for teaching anatomy. A sample of 201 students using Method 1 produces a testing average of 76.5. A sample of 244 students using Method 2 produces a testing average of 81.2. Assume that the population standard deviation for Method 1 is 18.88 while the population standard deviation for Method 2 is 15.43. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2.
Calculate the margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Round your answer to six decimal places.
