Chapter 7.3, Problem 58E
To determine

Prove that Un=(X¯Y¯)(μ1μ2)σ12+σ22n satisfies the conditions of Theorem 7.4 and thus that the distribution function of Un converges to a standard normal distribution function as n.

(a) Test the hypothesis. Consider the hypothesis test Ho = : against H₁o < 02. Suppose that the sample sizes aren₁ = 7 and n₂ = 13 and that $² = 22.4 and $22 = 28.2. Use α = 0.05. Ho is not ✓ rejected. 9-9 IV (b) Find a 95% confidence interval on of 102. Round your answer to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76).
Let us suppose we have some article reported on a study of potential sources of injury to equine veterinarians conducted at a university veterinary hospital. Forces on the hand were measured for several common activities that veterinarians engage in when examining or treating horses. We will consider the forces on the hands for two tasks, lifting and using ultrasound. Assume that both sample sizes are 6, the sample mean force for lifting was 6.2 pounds with standard deviation 1.5 pounds, and the sample mean force for using ultrasound was 6.4 pounds with standard deviation 0.3 pounds. Assume that the standard deviations are known. Suppose that you wanted to detect a true difference in mean force of 0.25 pounds on the hands for these two activities. Under the null hypothesis, 40 = 0. What level of type II error would you recommend here? Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654). Use a = 0.05. β = i What sample size would be required? Assume the sample sizes are to be equal.…

The P-value is 0.0008 (b) The power is 0.94 . Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. Round your answer to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76). (c) n₁ = n2 = 1 . Round your answer to the nearest integer.
