Suppose μ1 and μ2 are true mean stopping distances at 50 mph for cars of a certain type equipped with two different types of braking systems. Use the two-sample t test at significance level 0.01 to test H0: μ1μ2 = −10 versus Ha: μ1μ2 < −10 for the following data: m = 7, x = 114.5, s1 = 5.06, n = 7, y = 129.9, and s2 = 5.38.

Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)

t =
P-value =



State the conclusion in the problem context.

Reject H0. The data suggests that the difference between mean stopping distances is less than −10.

Reject H0. The data does not suggest that the difference between mean stopping distances is less than −10.    

Fail to reject H0. The data suggests that the difference between mean stopping distances is less than −10.

The average stopping distances for a population of school buses traveling 50 miles per hour, measured in feet, are normally distributed, with a standard deviation of 6 feet. Using a random sample of 23 buses having a sample mean of 262 feet, construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean stopping distance of the population.
