11/19 (Thu) — Ch 18 Two-sample Confidence Interval

By


Happy Thanksgiving! (Almost)!

 

We have a (relatively) short video today!

We will continue with Ch 18. Our focus is on constructing confidence intervals to estimate difference between two population means.

 

Instructions

  • There are 2 confidence interval problems in this lab work (not from the book). To avoid confusion, please use the following notations:

 

      • Question #1:
          • (1) denotes the male population, (2) denotes the female population.  The  sample estimate that you use is:  x1 – x2
      • Question #2:
          • (1) denotes the control population, (2) denotes the Ancy population.  The  sample estimate that you use is:  x1 – x2

 

  • The video explains the concept and shows you how to do the lab work:

Ch 18 Two-sample confidence interval

  • Submit your lab work as one single PDF file to Canvas before the due date.
