Chapter 18.3, Problem 25E

Chicago Midway International Airport and Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport are the U.S. airports with the worst percentage of delayed flights (Travel+Leisure website, April 2015). But when flights are delayed, do these two airports experience delays of the same length? The delay times in minutes for seven recent, randomly selected delayed flights departing from each of these airports are as follows.

Chicago Midway International Airport Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport
68 105
99 35
42 34
31 87
54 73
25 41
49 57

Use the MWW test to determine if there is a difference in length of flight delays for these two airports. Use α = .05. What is the p-value? What is your conclusion?
