A study was done using a treatment group and a placebo group. The results are shown in the table. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Use a 0.05 significance level for both parts.

a. Test the claim that the two samples are from populations with the same mean. What are the null and alternative hypotheses?
b. What is the Test Statistic, t? What is the P-value?
State the conclusion for the test.
c. Construct a confidence interval suitable for testing the claim that the two samples are from populations with the same mean.
Since we are considering unequal variances, we calculate the degrees of freedom as given below.
The Hypothesis:
H0: =
Ha:
This is a Two tailed test.
(b) The Test Statistic:
The p Value: The p value (2 Tail) for t = -1.38, df = 45, is; p value = 0.0872
The Decision Rule: If the P value is < , Then Reject H0
The Decision: Since P value (0.0872) is > (0.05), We Fail to Reject H0.
The Conclusion: There isn't sufficient evidence at the 95% significance level to warrant rejection of the claim that the 2 means are from the same population.
_____________________________________________
(c) Given:
= 2.31, s1 = 0.99, n1 = 27,
= 2.62, s2 = 0.67, n2 = 31,
= 0.05, df = 45
The tcritical (2 tail) = 2.014
The Confidence Interval is given by (- ) ME, where
(- ) = 2.31 – 2.62 = -0.31
The Lower Limit = -0.31 - 0.45 = -0.76
The Upper Limit = -0.31 + 0.45 = 0.14
The 95% Confidence Interval is (-0.76 , 0.14)
Here again we see, that the limits have 2 different signs, and hence the confidence interval contain the value 0, which means it is a possibility that the 2 means are equal, and therefore we cannot reject the null hypothesis.
