Researchers wish to know if the data they have collected provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in mean serum uric acid levels between normal individuals and individuals with Down’s syndrome The data consist of serum uric acid readings on 12 individuals with Down’s syndrome and 15 individuals without Down’s syndrome. The means are x1=4.5 mg/100 ml for those with Down’s syndrome and x2=3.4 mg/100 ml for those without. s1 = 1.0 and s2 = 1.2.
Solution-
above test results that the null hypothesis is rejected.
So, there is enough evidence to claim that there is significant difference in mean serum uric acid levels.
