The following are values of independent samples from two different populations.

Sample 1 122 114 130 165 144 133 139 142 150
Sample 2 108 125 122 132 120 137 128 138 140

Test to a 5% level if the two samples are taken from a population with the same mean or if population 1 has a higher true mean.

a) assume population 1 has a known standard deviation of 10 and population 2 has a known standard deviation of 5

b) assume population 1 has a known standard deviation of 10 and population 2 has a known standard deviation of 20
