Use the sample data below to construct 90%confidence interval for m1-m2 where m1 and m2 represent the meanfor the treatment group and the control group respectively. Assumeequal population standard deviations and interpret theinterval.

Treatmentgroup            Control group

n1=40                            n2=80

x1=189.1                        x2=203.7

s1=38.7                           s2=39.2

Would you say the following?

(-26.76,-2.44) since all of the values in the interval arenegative , we conclude that the mean blood pressure for those onthe diet is less than for those not on the diet.
