Since s1/s2 = 5.2 / 3.8 = 1.37 (it lies between 0.5 and 2) we used the pooled variance.
The degrees of freedom used is n1 + n2 - 2 = 30 + 45 -2 = 73 (since pooled variance is used)
The Hypothesis:
H0: =
Ha: >
This is a Right tailed test.
The Test Statistic:
The p Value: The p value (Right Tail) for t = 4.16,df = 73, is; p value = 0.0000
The Decision Rule: If the P value is < , Then Reject H0
The Decision: Since P value (0.0000) is < (0.05), We Reject H0.
The Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence at the 95% significance level to conclude that the average work experience for men is greater than the average work experience for women.

A researcher knows the average weight of American men between the ages of 30 and 50 is 154 pounds. For a random sample of heart patients, body weights are recorded. The data are as follows: 135, 178, 213, 180, 180, 182, 210, 187, 170, 189, 232, 153, 169, 195, 183, 153, 206, 195, 225, 199, and 167. The researcher would like to determine if men who have heart attacks between those ages are heavier than the average 30 to 50-year-old...
Researchers did a study to compare how much men and women talk because it is commonly thought that women talk more than men. The study collected data from a simple random sample of women and a simple random sample of men. For each individual in these samples the researchers gave the estimated number of words spoken by her/him in a day. The data is in an Excel file on Canvas. (a) Do the data provide good evidence that women talk...
