Go online and do some focused research on some specific human rights case. There are high profile cases (and they do not have to be current) like Elian Gonzalez, Malala, Syrian refugees (a dialog on how to solve this would be welcome).

The town of Charlotte recently started a single-stream recycling program. The town provided 60-gallon recycling bins to 25 randomly selected households and 75-gallon recycling bins to 22 randomly selected households. The total volume of recycling over a 10-week period was measured for each of the households. The average total volumes were 382 and 415 gallons for the households with the 60- and 75-gallon bins, respectively. The sample standard deviations were 52.5 and 43.8 gallons, respectively. Assume that the 10-week total volumes of recycling are approximately normally distributed for both groups and that the population standard deviations are equal. Using a test statistic of -2.321 and a 2% significance level, can you conclude that the average 10-week recycling volume of all households having 60-gallon containers is different from the average volume of all households that have 75-gallon containers?
Then reconsider the town of Charlotte's recycling program. If we assume that the population standard deviations are different, we will have a test statistic of -2.348. We will also now have 44 degrees of freedom. Re-test the hypothesis given these calculations.
These are sample two population t-tests. Please show ALL the work up to the answers.
