Consider the following hypothesis test.
The following results are for two independent samples taken from the two populations.
Sample 1
Sample 2
n 1 = 80
n 2 = 70
x 1 = 104
x 2 = 106
σ 1 = 8.4
σ 2 = 7.6
What is the value of the test statistic? If required enter negative values as negative numbers (to 2 decimals).

With = .05, what is your hypothesis testing conclusion?
Periodically, Merrill Lynch customers are asked to evaluate Merrill Lynch financial consultants and services (2000 Merrill Lynch Client Satisfaction Survey). Higher ratings on the client satisfaction survey indicate better service with 7 the maximum service rating. Independent samples of service ratings for two financial consultants are summarized here. Consultant A has 10 years of experience, whereas consultant B has 1 year of experience. Use = .05 and test to see whether the consultant with more experience has the higher population mean service rating.

- See data attached. SoftBus Company sells PC equipment and customized software to small companies to help them manage their day-to-day business activities. Although SoftBus spends time with all customers to understand their needs, the customers are eventually on their own to use the equipment and software intelligently. To understand its customers better, SoftBus recently sent questionnaires to a large number of prospective customers. Key personnel—those who would be using the software—were asked to fill out the questionnaire. SoftBus received 82 usable responses, as shown in the file. You can assume that these employees represent a random sample of all of SoftBus's prospective customers. SoftBus believes it can afford to spend much less time with customers who own PCs and score at least 4 on PC Knowledge. Let's call these the "PC-savvy" customers. On the other hand, SoftBus believes it will have to spend a lot of time with customers who do not own a PC and score 2 or less on PC…arrow_forwardSee data attached.
