two universities (one in the east and one in the west) are being compared. Researchers want to know if there is a difference in the mean age of students at the two universities. The population standard deviations are known. The following data shows the results of samples collected at each institution: School Location n (sample size) sample mean ( ) population standard deviation West 33 25.78 6.29 East 35 23.16 7.52 What is the value of the test statistic for the previous problem? (Enter your answer as a positive value even if you calculated a negative test statistic value i.e. if you calculated -1.311 you should enter 1.311). Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
