See attachment for question
@amistre64 can u help with this?
prolly .... i find the way they present the long tiny text to be, disorientating ...
lol yah me to
\[\Large Z=\frac{u_1-u_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}}\] or it may be a T score thing, sounds familiar
yah that looks familiar
or i spose: a more confidence interval setup would be: \[[u_1-u_2]\pm Z_{.95}\sqrt{that~stuff}\]
no i think it's the other way cause that looks familiar to me
the other was is just a zscore presentation. confidence intervals take on a slightly modified version of it
\[[5.37-4.23]\pm(2.575)\sqrt{\frac{(2.33)^2+(1.96)^2}{40}}\]
:( that looks familiar to!
OMG
now u r just confusing me :(
do you recall confidence intervals?\[u\pm Z\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2}{n}}\]
yes
its just a version of that is all, using the mean/variance properties of 2 samples
1.96 for Z on a 95% CI ... i read it as ((% to start with
if i did it right, lets try: .20 and 2.08 as the range
ok one sec. i'm looking through my notes
FOUND IT!!!
i can never find anything in my notes ... prolly since i dont take notes
lmao well i had what week it was from and the question # so i could find it again.
that looks to use the t distribution values instead of the z distributions ... which of course will produce similar but different values
yup
if we know the population variance ... which is seldom.... we could use the Z stuff, it used to be taught that n>30 would allow you to substitute Z for T
from what i got the problem will look like this \[(5.37-4.23)\pm2.023\times \sqrt{\frac{ 2.33^{2} }{ 40 }+\frac{ 1.96^{2} }{40}}\]
The lower bound is 0.17 The upper bound is 2.11
