18. Scores this year on the SAT mathematics test (SAT-M) for students taking the test for the first time are believed to be Normally distributed with mean 4. For students taking the test for the second time, this year's scores are also believed to be Normally distributed but with a possibly different mean 42. We wish to estimate the difference - A random sample of the SAT-M scores of 100 students who took the test for the first time this...
