Explanation / Answer

Given that,
mean(x)=58.61
standard deviation , s.d1=16.57
number(n1)=30
y(mean)=50.28
standard deviation, s.d2 =9.02
number(n2)=25
null, Ho: u1 = u2
alternate, H1: u1 != u2
level of significance, = 0.1
from standard normal table, two tailed t /2 =1.67
since our test is two-tailed
reject Ho, if to < -1.67 OR if to > 1.67
calculate pooled variance s^2= (n1-1*s1^2 + n2-1*s2^2 )/(n1+n2-2)
s^2 = (29*274.5649 + 24*81.3604) / (55- 2 )
s^2 = 187.0761
we use test statistic (t) = (x-y)/sqrt(s^2(1/n1+1/n2))
to=58.61-50.28/sqrt((187.0761( 1 /30+ 1/25 ))
to=8.33/3.7039
to=2.249
| to | =2.249
critical value
the value of |t | with (n1+n2-2) i.e 53 d.f is 1.67
we got |to| = 2.249 & | t | = 1.67
make decision
hence value of | to | > | t | and here we reject Ho
p-value: two tailed ( double the one tail ) - ha : ( p != 2.249 ) = 0.0286
hence value of p0.1 > 0.0286,here we reject Ho
ANSWERS
---------------
null, Ho: u1 = u2
alternate, H1: u1 != u2
test statistic: 2.249
critical value: -1.67 , 1.67
decision: reject Ho
p-value: 0.0286
