Question: Here's the formula for t - value for the Unequal variance t - test for two independent samples. t = x 1 - x 2

Here's the formula for t-value for the Unequal variance t-test for two independent samples.
t=x1-x2s12N1+s22N22
where
x1 bar is the mean of sample 1
X2bar is the mean of sample 2,
s1 is the standard deviation of sample 1
s2 is the standard deviation of sample 2
N1 is the sample size of sample 1
N2 is the sample size of sample 2
Now assume the following to answer the questions below
Sample 1 is the life satisfaction scores by OLDER adults
Sample 2 is the life satisfaction scores by YOUNGER adult
1)
What is X1bar (the first character on the nominator)-the mean for life satisfaction scores by OLDER adults?
A)42
B)43
C)43.5
D)44
E)44.5
F)45
What is X2bar-the mean for life satisfaction scores by YOUNGER adults?
A)26.2
B)26.6
C)27.4
D)28.1
E)29.6
What is s1-the standard deviation of the distribution-of life satisfaction scores by OLDER adults?
A)8.21
B)7.67
C)7.40
D)8.68
E)8.97
What is s2-the standard-deviation of the distribution-of life satisfaction scores by YOUNGER adults?
A)8.54
B)8.76
C)7.48
D)6.48
E)9.11
What is N1-the sample size of the OLDER adults and N2-the sample size of the YOUNGER adults.
A)8 and 10
B)10 and 10
C)12 and 10
D)10 and 12
E)20 and 10

A)old tailed t-test
B)two tailed t-test
If the wuestion being asked by the researcher was : is the life satisfaction diffrent for older adults compared to younger adults, what kind of t-test would be used?
