Question:

Do Men Have a Higher Mean Body Temperature? Repeat Exercise 9 with the additional assumption that σ1 = σ2. How are the results affected by this additional assumption?
Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Also assume that the population standard deviations are equal σ1 = σ2, so that the standard error of the differences between means is obtained by pooling the sample variances as described in Part 2 of this section.
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. Do the following:
