Use the 002 significance level. What is the p-value? e Is this a one-tailed or a two-tailed test? One-tailed test Two-taled test b. State the decision rule (Round your answer to 2 decimal places) 1018 Next 5 6 8

Explanation / Answer

a)
H0: mu1 - mu2 <= 0
Ha: mu1 - mu2 > 0

This is one tailed test

b)
The decision rule is to reject H0 if z is greater than 2.0537

c)

Test Statistics

z = [ (x1 - x2) - d ] / SE

z = 3.85

d)

Rejected H0

e)

p-value = 0.0001

x1(bar) 20.75 x2(bar) 19.00 s1 2.25 s2 1.90 n1 40 n2 45 SE = sqrt[ (s12/n1) + (s22/n2) ] (s12/n1) 0.1266 (s22/n2) 0.0802 SE 0.4547
