Use the formula to find the standard error of the distribution
of differences in sample means, x1 - x2. (there are lines above
both x's but my computer won't transcribe it)
Samples of size 45 from Population 1 with
mean 3.4 and standard deviation 1.5 and
samples of size 45 from Population 2 with
mean 1.9 and standard deviation 1.4
x1 = | 3.400 | x2 = | 1.900 |
s1 = | 1.500 | s2 = | 1.400 |
n1 = | 45.000 | n2 = | 45.000 |
standard error se=√(S21/n1+S22/n2)=sqrt(1.5^2/45+1.4^2/45) = | 0.3059 |
