A coffee manufacturer is interested in whether the mean daily consumption of
regular-coffee drinkers is less than that of decaffeinated-coffee drinkers. Assume
that the population standard deviations for those drinking regular-coffee is 1.20 cups
per day and 1.36 cups per day for those drinking decaffeinated-coffee.
A random sample of 50 regular-coffee drinkers showed a mean of 4.35 cups per day;
while a random sample of 40 decaffeinated-coffee drinkers showed a mean of 5.84
cups per day.
What is the value of the sample test statistic for a one-sided hypothesis test
conducted using a 1% significance level.
