Refer to Exercise 34. Describe the pooled t test for testing when both population distributions are normal with σ1 =σ2. Then use this test procedure to test the hypotheses suggested in Exercise 33.
Reference exercise 34
Consider the pooled t variable
which has a t distribution with m + n –2 df when both population distributions are normal with σ1 – σ2 (see the Pooled t Procedures subsection for a description of Sp).
a. Use this t variable to obtain a pooled t confidence interval formula for μ1 – μ2 .
b. A sample of ultrasonic humidifiers of one particular brand was selected for which the observations on maximum output of moisture (oz) in a controlled chamber were 14.0, 14.3, 12.2, and 15.1. A sample of the second brand gave output values 12.1, 3.6, 11.9, and 11.2 (“Multiple Comparisons of Means Using Simultaneous Confidence Intervals,” J. of Quality Technology, 1989: 232–241). Use the pooled t formula from part (a) to estimate the difference between true average outputs for the two brands with a 95% confidence interval.
c. Estimate the difference between the two μ’s using the two-sample t interval discussed in this section, and compare it to the interval of part (b).
