3. Test the null hypothesis that the mean rating of Trump by profs is greater than or equal to the mean rating of Trump by students.   Use .10 significance level, a one tail test and the following data:

sample   profs       students

Mean      21           25

Variance 48           45

number 16           9

Ho:μ12   
>=
0
Ha: μ12 < 0
Profs students
x1    = 21.00 x2      = 25.00
s1    = 6.93 s2      = 6.71
n1    = 16 n2     = 9
degree of freedom   v= (n1+n2-2)= 23.000
for 0.1 level ,left tail test &23 df, critical t= 1.319
Decision rule :                   reject Ho if test statistic t<-1.319
Pooled Variance Sp2=((n1-1)s21+(n2-1)*s22)/(n1+n2-2)= 46.9565
Point estimate : x1-x2= -4.0000
standard error se =Sp*√(1/n1+1/n2)= 2.855
test stat t =(x1-x2-Δo)/Se= -1.4010
since test statistic falls in rejection region we reject null hypothesis
we have sufficient evidence to conclude that  mean rating of Trump by profs is less than the mean rating of Trump by students
