Two independent samples are to be compared to see if there is a difference in the population means. If a total of m subjects are available for the experiment, how should this total be allocated between the two samples in order to (a) provide the shortest confidence interval for μX μY and (b) make the test of H0: μX = μY as powerful as possible? Assume that the observations in the two samples are normally distributed with the same variance.
