1 ?1 (unknown) ?1=14 ?⎯⎯⎯1=9.4 ?1=1.903 SE1=0.509
2 ?2 (unknown) ?2=12 ?⎯⎯⎯2=11.1 ?2=2.141 SE2=0.618

The estimated standard error of the difference of the two sample means is SE=0.800.

Compute the value of the two-sample ?‑statistic used to test the null hypothesis ?0:?1=?2. Please give your answer precise to three decimal places.
