ged the variance for group 1) Different groups of male stalk-eyed flies were raised on different diets: a high nutrient corn diet vs. a low nutrient cotton wool diet. Investigators wanted to see if diet quality influenced eye-stalk length. They obtained the following data: d Diet Sample Mean Eye-stalk Length Variance in Eye-stalk d size, n (mm) Length (mm²) Corn (group 1) 21 2.05 0.0558 Cotton (group 2) 24 1.54 0.0812 =205-1.54-05T a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean eye-stalk length between the two diets (e.g., use group 1 - group 2).
