Experts from the Dean's Office decided to conduct a comparative study of final exam grades between two independently collected groups of students. Sample sizes were equal:n1=n2= 9.In addition, records from each group were assumed to be normal with KNOWN population standard deviations. Summaries and assumptions are presented in the table below.
| Group | Size =n | Mean =X | Population SD = | 2/n |
| HISTORY | n1= 9 | (X)1= 65.8 | 1= 9 | (1)2/n= 81/9 = 9 |
| STAT | n2= 9 | (X)2= 74.7 | 2= 12 | (2)2/n= 144/9 = 16 |
At the significance level= 0.05,do you have sufficient evidence that the population average performance among History classes is BELOW that in STAT?
